wow, looks like you have some work into it! For some reason I have a thing for wagons, they are so practical. I think yours will be less so, but in a good way!

Its was more of a cruiser car than any thing with all the ride and stuff. The rag top was good fun.

I've always wanted a wagon but I wanted to build it like a Nomad (2 doors) with a modern drive line. I was never able to find a solid builder and now I have too many unfinished projects.
