Really enjoyed this one. So many great cars.

Love the Ramp-truck.


How much do you think you would find one of these in the UK for?

It just amazes me that a low cost American utility vehicle becomes a luxury high cost vehicle when shipped to the UK

Gonna be looking £4k for something old and tatty up to £50k

Yep

The RK guys bought that Ramp-truck for $3,500, but over here it would probably be near £10k and up

Old and tatty is fine, I like the matte / ratlook.

This is alright:

Dude, there was a C10 going on eBay for about £2k just before Xmas. No t&t but solid rails with a few bits of rusty exterior panels. Was trying to talk Ralph into buying it. Came with engine and box but needed tuning up and was on a Q plate.

Still looked ruddy awesome and would've made an awesome muscle truck. That said though, that truck probably has the best part of £15-20k worth of gear on it.

Yeah, I don't want / can't have another 'project'. Just something ratty to burble around in would do very nicely
