Using a camera phone for pics probably doesn't do it justice.

It's attempt at something unique different, rather than buying a load of off the shelf parts to bolt/stick on like most people on here do And seeing you can get a scoob for £2.5K, why not?

I spotted a Vauxhall Combo pick up the other day, it didn't click until I realised Vauxhall never made a Pickup Corsa with a wide body (The genuine pick is based on the standard narrow corsa body, not the combo plus they never sold it in the Uk anyway).

I live near where this car is and it looks alot better in the flesh! Certainly different but it's just to show what the company can do etc etc. Respect to the lads for trying it

I know it may not be everyone's cup of tea but IMO I think it looks nice! Liked the colour before it was done though! But as stated before its to show what the company can do, and I think they done a great job

I think it's a pretty good advertisement for the bodyshop.

I don't know if I'd buy one, but I think it makes a change from the norm, and if you were having to sell your Scoob to buy a pick-up.......then.........?

Who did the conversion again? H-something-autos?? Overdid it on the graphics i think. And them mudflaps, ffs. Would've been much better with no flaps, no graphics and no roof vent, imo.

I've also seen this car in the flesh, and much better than any pics I've seen so far. Yes, the graphics are ott, but it's a company car ffs, so what do you expect
Mark @ ht autos told me the story of needing a pickup for work, and having an old written off scooby to play with, so why not. The fit and finish is excellent, and certainly does show what a top bunch of bodywork lads they are. Hopefully we'll see it out on a SMACS run soon mark?

I think it looks mint... Very original. Graphics are overkill, but at least they get their advertisement across, and they are actually advertising something they do....
Instead of plastering loads of stickers across their car i.e toyo. tein. samco. sammy and whatever other stickers the ordinary guy likes to put on his vehicle without even having a part from that company..


JOB WELL DONE.

I`ll be down for a quote at start of next month...

I admire the workmanship and appreciate the effort that's gone into it, but part of me just thinks:

"What have you done to a perfectly good car!?!?!?"

Still, each to their own and if it makes the owners happy and proud, so be it.

Watching the slide show, the project grew on me... the end result looks quite well, if a little sacrilegious!

However, in my opinion, you should sort out the display of the company name - such blatant misuse of the possessive apostrophe would not instil any confidence in the company's ability. Sorry to be up my own a$$ but I always steer well clear of any company/service that can't afford a little investment in correct grammar.

I think it's fantastic - a real individual pice of work that shows off what the company can do.

Although i would change the Scoop for a 'normal' one and possible the wheels!

Erm.........

Oh I dont know. I am totally confused

All respect for the amount of work that has gone into it.

I guess its just not quite my cup of tea or cup of whatever. Its more like a cup of vodka

No but seriously, its a lot of work and I guess pretty good advertising for the bodyshop
