	I suspect most of you know I am a bit of a redneck. Show me your cars converted to pickups, good or bad. I was very tempted a few years ago to take a Mitsubishi Pajero estate and chop its rear off..... Never did. Corsa I saw recently in Medway area. What it did look like. Lates shape of Corsa pickup. SORRY, Cant seem to rotate the pic on Photobucket.

	And the good news is that they can now exist officially and be SVA'd in their own class, if what I understood the last release from ACE is correct.

	AFAIK modified cars are difficult to register in Sweden whereas no problem with commercials. The PV shaped Volvo's shown are actually Duett's and have a seperate chassis hence popularity for modifying Paul H

	Hey Grizz - how's things? Polo's are indeed popular I used to own this one (bought it off Dollywobbler on here if my memory serves me right)
	Currently driving a '68 Karmann Ghia as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

	Just been digging around in an old Potatobucket account and found this.... One day I want to do this. Nearly did a few years ago, but a bambi put an end to my purchase plan.

	Just found this from a show we went to about 4 yars ago. I suspect it was a factory version, but probably based on a sedan. Any more info ?? Also had this in an album a long time. Hopefully not a pearoast.
