That's sad we saw it at the nec in November
A superbly built truck . It was flawless
It was for sale about a month ago??
Perhaps the new owner stuffed it?

It won the Truck! award at Retro Rides Gathering last year, sad to see it like this :/ Was still owned by the guy that built it. I think it may be salvageable, and it is an awesome truck.

Obviously needs a bit of work, but easily repairable. Would love to repair that. Great truck and superb conversion.

It's a crying shame to see that happen, looks like a stunner in the show picks. Wonder what happened; R888 Toyo Proxes in the wet?

Its still down as having a 1275cc lump.
Would that have not had an inspection prior to it being written off?
Would the insurer not have paid out because of the engine discrepancy?

Hi, It's presumably the ins co putting it through copart which means they own it so have paid out on it. It must have been inspected as it's classed as Cat 'D'.

As long as the engine (along with all the other mods) was declared to the insurer, they wouldn't have cared it the V5 was updated. is sad to see it looking like that, but surprised the owner didn't buy it back as salvage? |

The 'additional notes' state 'undercarriage' damage. Maybe thats a harder knock than it looks. Distorted floorpan and the like? I know its been said that any repair should be easy but, surely, that will only be straightforwards to a body shop or a very experienced person. |

That looks to have held up quite well. Looks like someone may get a bargain there, it should pull straight reasonably easily.

When they state "undercarriage", it often just means a bent wishbone, damaged steering rack or shocks.

The fact the exhaust has been pulled off its hangers and there's grass/mud hanging off the lower arms it's probably been punted down a ditch somewhere.

That wheel looks shoved back. I'd expect fairly condenserable inner wing and chassis rail damage. Maybe even damaged firewall.
Doable but it would not be cheap and parts not particularly easy to come by, as really it'll need a full front end inc an inner wing on that side.
