Still got the 64 up for sale on the East Coast. South African mild custom for anyone looking for a slightly different pup. It's got a 1275 South African block and some nice roll up window doors on it... 10" Minstral Wheels, and a nice bench seat. Building a nice 68 too, but that ones not for sale. Cheers.

I don't think any pick up's were made with a 1098 engine although it could have been changed over the years.

If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

I heard he either traded or bought it to flip it for a lot less than $22k.

I went out to see this pup.
IMO its in really rough shape and needs a lot of work. $22k firm is high for its condition.
One of the questionable things about it was the bed having a huge flat sheet of metal welded onto it.

I have a lot of detailed photos if anyone is interested

Good luck to the seller

If you mean the ones on Mini Guys post they are Clubman Estate rear bumpers.

Ah.... I knew the Clubman saloons had a different profile rear bumper (again, nicer I think)....had no idea the estates also did. They look quite smart.

Welds (gobby ones at that) and the fact it has been replaced with a flat piece of steel the factory ones are ribbed much like a regular pick up truck.

Maybe not Spitz as looking at the pictures above this pick up also has a flat load bed floor.

Ah yes......
Those rear bumpers look different...are they off something else?

Do you mean the one piece bumper/
I can't see a bumper in the original post.
