automatic transit pickup/crewcab/van wanted

[Richieintransit]

I'm interested in anything auto, as long as its solid and roadworthy, would love a pickup or crew cab
what ya got?!

keep looking ebay was 4 vans on there in the last couple of weeks but if your rely want one do what i do and look every night

i do mate, but always too far away or buggered like your red mini bus!! i was gonna bid on it but too far away,
I never seen a pickup so would love one, would it be legal to cut the back off a van to chassis and build one? or is a transit vans structure in it's body? if so i'd buy an auto van that has been damaged and do that!

p.s have you fixed the gearbox, probably just bands need adjusting and an oil change mate

not looked in to the box side of things yet gota sort engine management light first get it running as it should then look in to the box, as for did they do a mk5 chassis cab/double cab im gessing they did but not seen one, as for cutting down a van the chassis is not the same as on chassis cabs but it could be done i think if i wanted an auto chassis cab if i could find one id get an auto van and take the engine box out and change it over rather than cut a van down these things never look correct and always have a home brew look about them, you couldnt drive a standard cab you would need double/extra cab
