gday. Ute! Cool! Is it a real one or a Van cut? Looks like a genuine from what i can tell. Can't see the back. Always wanted a Ute, will probably have to find another van and cut it down as ute are Rare! rare! rare!

I say pickup! you say UTE! haha.
ill call it a pickup.. its not a truck! a truck is somethin that can hall a large amount of stuff.
this cant. haha.
yes its a genuine 1969 austin mini pickup.
it has a cooper S engine and modded out to a 1340cc and many many many many addons. roll tip rockers, dual timin chain. 1.75 hif6 carb, gt6 racing head *port and plish*, hepolite pistons, etc.. etc. etc..
im goin to get some work done on her next week
so hopefully that will mean the 13x7s can go on there and the ugly bmw wheels can go!
kel
here is a butt shot for all you perverts hehe.



o ya. i did all the work on this. i chopped tail gait to firewall out. rust heap!. did it all correct! i made the dash and console. i did it all!
kel

Does it get up and boogie.. with those specs?

yes it does. well.. did. when i had the 3.44 diff in there. i switched to a 2.96 diff.
eh... its good enough i guess haha. its a show ute now. since i cant beat any cars on the street. i was takin mustang 5.0 *v8 302* and beat them at stoplights. but not long distance.
kel

I like it, a genuine ute is a rare find indeed It just needs something to break the yellow, maybe black racing stripes.
Ute is short for Utility vehicle btw in case you were wondering they're also known as a Tilly in outback QLD.

I like Tilly alot better! and no it dont need stripes. its not a bumble bee.
kel

kel you sound really excited
its great!

did you get the yoot in that condition?
