Well I am not new to classics but certainly new to transits, this is my Maltese mk1 pickup that I am working on. The chassis is very good with only some surface rust so Bilt Hamber is sorting that out. The back was largely ok with 2 rotten planks so the local shipwright scarfed in a couple of planks and epoxied them in. There was barely any paint on the wood so have managed to prime and undercoat it so far. Plan is to keep it grey and do the metalwork in black.
I am not sure exactly what the pickup was originally and whether it was a bullnose as it is now or a flat front. How do I tell? It has a 2.5 di and an mt75 fitted at the mo. Another curious thing is that I have a perfectly good windscreen wiper motor and linkage under the dash but inside the engine compartment......I have another one! (see pic) What is going on here?
