New to me. Picked up my Pickup.

Well I'm back as a Defender owner. It's a basic 12 plate 90 pickup, a blank canvas.

I don't plan on doing too much but I would like to put on a roll cage to keep my wife happy but first I have to decide wether to keep it as a pickup or convert it to a van. Mainly because of the 2 Cockers we have.

Advise and suggestions welcome on the roll cage.

Does anybody have the panels to convert it to a van?

Thanks for the replies guys.

I'm looking forward using it now.

First job is to Dinitrol the chassis then get some of those heater deflectors to stop cooking my legs. One unexpected plus point with the small cab area is that it heats up really well and the rear sliding windows are great for fresh air when required.

I'm going to keep it as a pickup then I can use the canvas back/canopy as and when required.

Cheers Andy
