I need my Aussie dictionary, Alan, what are Jaffers. Even though I should be afraid to ask.
Sorry for the UNI but when I find slicks, good or bad, I share them.
There are a lot of slicks in the Dallas craigslist lately and several guys selling parts. One has a tailgate, hood and bed for a 65 swb.

Here is a slick with lots of.......Patina.......

Well, Hmm
Considering we have seen stuff like Black Gold and the Supercab unis with the flareside fenders that really isn't too bad.
It looks right with the roof on as far as you can tell from the pic so they must not have screwed it up too bad. If you are going to go that way at least they picked the best possible truck - short Uni.
Would look WAY out of proportion with a LWB, and the topless look does work pretty well with the "flow" that a Uni has anyway.
Some of it is who you are, I for one rarely leave anything stock.

Brian, I don't know if they are mentioned in the Aussie lingo dictionary, they are a sweet we ate at the pictures and rolled them down the wooden floors, much to the dismay of some!

A very bright green with a roll cage of sorts? Not unlike this, IIRC:

I always thought it would be neat to cut one and make a removable hard top . I liked how that flat spot on the top edge of the door continued on the boxside. I fioyou could cut along there, then onto the flanged joint that holds the rear window panel on. Then cut the doors and weld the top corner onto the newly removable hard top. Along the too of the windshield I figure some framing would have to be made that could hold the two together
