I always thought the wagons had a dorky kind of charm,
Actually of all the "Family truckster" vettes this is the "best" I have seen if that help you guys like it ( or hate it ) even more....

I'm not afraid to say that that looks kind of neat. It needs a lot of TLC but it's one of the more unique wagons I've seen. It has a BB, flairs, tilt front, side pipes... not bad. Gaps need to be adjusted and a new interior...etc.

I usually like the wagons but the quality of this build looks poor. They should have tried to do a few mods well instead of doing a bunch of mods poorly.

Some of that work really is of the lowest quality. The first time I replaced a headliner in a VW, I did better than that guy did, but I pulled it out a month later and did it again because I couldn't stand the way it looked. I wouldn't want to say I was the guy that did the glove compartment on that car either. Kind of a shame really, based on the VIN, it is a real big block car.

For 2K I would buy it. I think it's a great convertible project begging to be done. 30 minutes with an air body saw and it will look much better than it does now.

Look like they did the front tilt c4 style and like others I have seen they didnt gap it right then those big gaps make the whole thing look patchy,
Yea, for a couple grand I would buy it , paint it black and get my wife to do her runs to estate sales and garage sales in it,
