Title: converting a wagon to a pickup
Post by: Pinto_Guy on February 03, 2004, 11:30:07 PM
Is there any pictures of this out there? I have a 78 wagon that I was thinking of making into a parts hauler. All my cars usually end up some sort of Sport Touring corner carving animals but this I would want to make into a simple little truck,Well maybe add a Super Coupe drive line but thats it,I think!

Thanks for the pictures! That is exactly what I had in mind. I have some Rancero emblems in a box somewhere that will look right at home on that with a little roman numeral 2 next to it like the Bronco 2. It should be an easy do. I'll post some of mine in a couple weeks if I can get it to pass smog.

the roman numeral 2 (II) could come from a mustangII or even a broncoII dig thru the junkyards they'll probably give them to you!!

Now thats cool send pic of yours when it's done. One thing I've wanted to do was get a wagon cut it in half (at the door hinge) and make a camper. what do you think?
