Title: Re: Aussie Moggie. Post by: Manky Monkey on October 07, 2007, 09:02:17 AM Tis true.
I ran about for a couple of years in a bog standard Moggy, very similar to this, but without the roof chop. Just a cab unit on chassis rails. No photos unfortunately. I eventually shoved in a 1600 twin cam Fiat Mirafiori engine & built a proper steel pickup bed. No piccies of that either. :( Title: Re: Aussie Moggie. Post by: VALLEYSBOY on October 07, 2007, 08:44:02 PM hmm bet that engine rattled it to death :)
Title: Re: Aussie Moggie. Post by: Manky Monkey on October 07, 2007, 08:45:51 PM Never got it set up properly. Very unreliable, but when it was running well it did make me grin. ;D

Title: Re: Aussie Moggie. Post by: Manky Monkey on October 09, 2007, 11:12:02 PM Go for it -though the Moggy Owner's Club I used to belong to -Surrey/Hants Borders branch, would've lynched you for even thinking of it!

Title: Re: Aussie Moggie. Post by: Manky Monkey on October 14, 2007, 07:19:43 PM I've now got a Moggy Minor cab back & 2 Moggy wheels.
Give me enough time & I'll have an entire car in kit form! :) Bobbi, one of Janie & Dave's neighbours is selling a 205 Peugeot auto. 400 quid. Could make a nice trike motor. ;) Title: Re: Aussie Moggie.
