Anyone know this truck E186 EFO?

Just bought this truck and it's had some love and a few hours put in to it and wondered if it was any one on here?

I guess the PO was a fan of speed holes

What are they all about????

Nice truck matey, looks solid. Love the green but personally I'm not a massive fan of the black head look.

That's ok there's half a tin of the green paint in the back so i think the roof will be colour coded once I get chance

Must have bought a new hole saw and got a bit over enthusiastic!

But other than the holes I do like the look of that. I would probably colour code the windscreen frame and bulkhead but other than that I wouldn't change a thing. Looks good!

I'm hoping the holes are 20mm then i can fit blind grommets on some of them.

That's VERY nice. If you don't mind me asking, is there a tonneau cover there? If so, what kind? (Just recently bought a 90 truck cab myself and looking into different ways of dealing with this. I know the Exmoor one, and the expensive aluminium one... is this something different?) Cheers.

Jase leave the holes it adds to the look. If was me I'd leave the roof black and chequer plate but colour code the windscreen frame and bonnet back to green.

no cover was going to get one made, I had one made before for a Hi Lux was only £130

I think it looks great the way it is...its a bit different......

Cheers, Jase... if you've got a place in mind, please let me know...

I'd leave it pretty well as it is....looks good. If you get bored with the holes (no pun intended) it's easy to swap out the bonnet, and as you say use grommets to fill some of the others.

Could it be that the holes are there to aid identification if stolen ? Or to deter theft ? I've thought about making a pattern of rivets on the panels of my Defender for that reason..... Think about it ?

You lot must have better eyes than me, took me ages to see said holes

Glad its not just me

but like the truck, as said id paint the rest green
but leave the roof black

looking at the holes on the front I was wondering if they were going to fit LED's or some other day running lights?

starting to get excited now :rolly:
