I'm sure it belongs to someone one on here, parked on Karting Nord ( I think) broken down Chevy ( i think) pickup.

The pick up and Cobras are pictured in this Classic Cars magazine in the round up section at the front.  Wink

Yes, it was us (in Houx Annexe), next door to Perdu.

We had 9 cobras and the Chevy pickup.  Sadly, the Chevy smashed it's transmission and had to limp home on a transporter.

Assuming I'm not talking about the same one...  
did anyone see the reeeeally old 'Studebaker' pick up in Karting Nord camped towards the karting track. We're talking very old, very rusty, hill-billy style.

I thought I recognised the same truck at Goodwood FoS being used as a support vehicle for the Hot Rods. Made me wonder whether all the rust and beaten-up bodywork hid a very well maintained and very tuned big-cubic-inch lump underneath.

Yup I saw the beat up old pickup on Karting Nord, I think you may be right about the beat up bodywork hiding a well maintained engine underneath.
It sounded sweet when it got fired up to leave.
