I travel between 2 States, NSW and Tasmania, the current project is in Launceston,Tasmania. I will be taking the ferry next Thursday and traveling via the Princes Hwy through Victoria to my other home in Bega, NSW.
Thanks for the replies. Sounds like I may have to take a trip to Mt Beauty in the near future.
I would still like to look at an original imported Pick-Up.

If you want a Mini Ute Import one even if it needs work or patching up it will be a Pick Up. It will always be worth all you pay for it. If you Cut up a Van to make up a Ute you will always have a cut up Van never be a real Pick Up. You will get sick of people stating what it is, which will hurt after all the effort and money spent.

Pickups were sold in NZ, if you find one there it should have less rust than UK ones.

Not the ones I have seen , there is not many left in NZ , and it is a very expensive piece of water to transport .

Hi Flapper, Thanks for the offer. How do I get your contact details?
Not sure what the protocol is as I'm new to this site.
