custom vette
You might want to go to the makoshark2forum. That is where a lot of custom vette guys hang out at. There are a few wagon vettes on there. There is a custom section for all c- thru c6, greenwood cars, can am, wide body, daytona, mako sharks, motion, and gto vette. If you go to the widebody section or greenwood section look up Randy Hammit known as 2 sharks. I am sure he will assist you.
Heres somes pics of my widebody daytona vette.

Ecklers sold these Greenwood kits. I think they look cool almost like a 50's Nomad.

I like it. However, I want to clarify that I prefer the bumper car conversions better, and I liked the '73 version the best. Something about the wagon over the rear chrome bumper is very attractive to me and I like the '73+ nose best as well.

Greenwood's design had the side windows roll up into the roof. These were Sportwagons, IIRC. Greenwood's designs had an opening rear window but most of the others didn't. This made access difficult in most. The typical real window that was made to open by owners often leaked.
The narrow side windows were built by everyone. I don't know who started them but it seems everyone built one. Some had no side windows, like having the windowless vans in the '70s.

Have a 75 corvette stingray sportwagon-new to forum
I know some Corvette lovers don't like them, but whenever we take it to car shows or around town.. we get lots of thumbs up! People take pics of it constantly. It is also very rare.
We got it as an oddity, but it grew on us-FAST.. and we can take our dog with us now!
**We would love to find out where to get the Greenwood decals for the top.
It is also for sale, if anyone is interested.
Thanks, Ron & Amy
