I'm struggling to idenfity the make and model in @john luke first pic. Judging by the recessed grille I'm going to totally guess at an Isuzu / Diahatsu but may well be wrong. It's a neat looking thing with a short wheelbase and is just right for restoration though. Edited February 25 by Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet they had the E Type in mind when they designed it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much prefer to see it with the stock wheels and tires, seems nothing is sacred these days when it comes to "rest-mods". 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably had an engine transplant at some stage though. that's exactly the type of pickup I'd buy, ship to UK, keep the patina on the body by going over it with a laquer and refit the inside and drivetrain, then use as a daily. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I guess the car itself doesn't garner enough attention so you have to gild it as well... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only has it been wrapped, it's got horrid black wheels which don't match the colour either. Yuk. If I was given the keys to that for a week, I'd hand them back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't understand why people would put black wheels on anything - they're not attractive IMHO and damned near impossible to keep clean... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
