i used to see a 74 pontiac wagon with the full monster truck treatment around here.

also have seen mustangs with it.

i even saw a rather delectible 55 chebby that had been shortened to fit a jeep cj chassis down south. kentucky or tennesee i believe it was. it was vette yellow and though i didnt see it up close it looked really sharp with excellent chrome etc.

although i personally dont get it, i just smile and think it kept someone off the streets doing something constructive.

i also saw first hand a local guy who made a wagon out of a bmw bavaria. he grafted on the back of a fairmount wagon. i think. it looked pretty sharp. but unfortunately he couldnt get the bmw motor to run right and dropped in an iron duke with its tranny. if he hadnt done that i might have wanted the wagon!
