I prefer the shape of the F4 actually, the F6 has that thing that looks like a roll bar higher than the cab!

Does the F4 have a different vin code system to identify it or was it offered as a conversion like the F6

Look at this video from Monaco, there is a pick up in the background.

Thats some spot.
pick-up
There were two types of pick-up, three or four if you include the Sinpar conversions. The original pick-up, F4 based, was developed for the UK market, however Sinpar got hold of a few and did a 4X4 conversion on them. The F6 derivative has a Rodeo 1 rear end, which is why it is square. If you look on youtube 'Journey to the end of the world',there is a long video of a trip by three Argentiniasn R4's down into Patagonia, one of which is an F6 derived pick-up. I find it not as nearly as attractive as the F4 derivative. I have at the moment a French F4, wich I am contemplating converting to the pick-up. It shouldn't be too difficult, but I would love to have a look at an original. There was an F6 pick-up for sale in France last September, going for 1800 euros, but he'd sold it by the time I'd discovered the advert. I love them too, and I can remember one, again in renault blue, used locally to me in Colchester from about 1982 to 1984 by a motorcycle dealership. I'll keep an eye on the french sites for any more, or if you're really desperate see how I get on with the conversion.
