I'm not sure I like it either.
The tailgate doesn't open like a typical tailgate. It comes off.
Notice they don't actually show you what the bed of the truck looks like.

I bet it will hit atleast $6000. Someone will buy it cause it is unique.

If it's so great, why is he selling it after only 5,000 miles?

How much will it go for you ask? I would bid $2.50 on it except I would be afraid of winning the bid.

Someone has WAAaaay too much time on their hands. What a waste of it.

Have a great day,

I don't get it either , for what he spent (time/money) he could have done a very nice restoration on the wagon. BTW, it doesn't have a tach for some reason.

This must be the useless/ridiculous project thread.

That said, if he made the pickup as a way to make the most of a crashed car, then it does offer quite a bit of redemption.

Have a great day,
