Many Duetts have been converted into pick-ups in Sweden. Commercial chassis were sold by Volvo so that coachbuilders could build their own rear sections. Cabs on those are shorter with less wide doors so that a pick-up bed could be longer for better carrying capacity. I have seen an English reg one of these but only once at a Volvo meet at Gaydon. Nice condition but I've not seen it pictured or mentioned since then. It was grey, cab and bed from memory. From North London/Herts? I likely have a picture, I will do some digging.
If John Crosskey reads this, please post if you have any info on this one.
I think all of the original Volvo chassis were as per the 445 and have the 2 piece split windscreen. Don't know if they carried on with them when they changed to a 1 piece screen.
See if you can get some pictures please.
