Default P100

I've heard of a Sierra P100 for sale recently, and i like the sound of what i've been told (such as 2.0 pinto and RWD )... but thats about as much as i know about them. Does anyone here have any good pictures of them or know any good websites about them?

They are a sierra based pickup........all the front end is identical to sierra so cossie running gear fits ok,as does dash,seats etc.........

The rear has a live axle with leaf springs so easy enough to uprate to take cossie power or whatever you wanna fit....

2.0 pinto [same as an old transit we've got ] or the 1.8 Diesel

2.1 pintos are just bored out versions

A popular conversion with those is the V6 lump cos the sound the nuts

Think Flashpoint off here was helipng/building one for someone

some aussie one:

Cheers guys... i think i'll maybe start off with the 2.0... then maybe see about some nice big carbs (i'm 18, so a V6 conversion is probably a little outta the question when it comes to insurance)

theres 1 near me at the local shitters garage, he wanted Ł500 w/o mot a few months back, body was pretty good wid regards to rust, paint was faided, and it is under a tree been there a few months now, i was gonna have it if he wanted 1 or 200 for it, but not 500...

i just kept on thinking of the purple 1 with a 2wd cossie lump and the steel plating in the pick up bit, what a fuckin beast!!!

Sounds nice...

Anyone here used a Vulcan built engine b4? Just been doing a little research and their engine specs looks pretty tidy.

They usually rust in the front comers of the body cos there r no plastic guards to stop the shit flying up.Also check where the chassi rails run from the back and blend into the floor pan.Mine has been stood for a couple of years and this is rusted to fak. Actually looks like a laminate of metals welded together rather than a thick peice of metal.
