    that thing is going to look meaty.
  • Good stuff man! We entertained the idea of doing this but we don't have the time nor the second wagon needed! Can't wait to see it on some big boy tires.

    I've rolled it outside for awhile, have a motor job or two to finish before I have time to proceed. I did tear down the one motor today, taking block to be decked tomorrow, annnd fixed the exhaust/replaced the cat on pebbles'wagon. And loaded up the scrapmetal...

    It's crazy looking, But I like it. Is the front not done yet?
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    No, haven't even started on the steer axle. It's only as high as it is because there's no engine/tranny.

    It's coming though. Believe it!
  • Holy donkey sauce, Batman! Nice work.

    The wife and the neighbor call mine the mini me of our discovery.

    I think this will be the major me to our discovery.
  • Lifted, AND wearing slips.... guarantee nobody's ever had that combo before!

    and that^^ ladies and gentlemen is the kernel of this whole adventure!

    actually, those are my drag day wheels. 205/60 Falken 912s with about 1/32 tread and looow air :P

    Wow. I really can't tell if you're serious or if they are just seriously neglected wheels/tires. :?
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Serious, I mounted them up just for fun. They had a bit more tread before a few nitrous burnouts buffed 'em down...
  • This just goes to show that you don't need a big ass garage like mine to do cool, off the wall, never been done before wagon craziness (might just make it a bit easier).

    Good stuff BAM!!!!!!!

    That looks bad ass!! Love all your creations bam. Keep up the great work
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Thanks for the encouragement, guys.

    A funny thing: When I first visualized this thing, I intended to put the wagon body on another chassis- some 4wd small truck. I never did find the right candidate, and it morphed into what you see here.

    So now a 2000 4runner looks like it may fall in my lap. It's pretty much totaled in front, but mechanically ok.

    I do have a line on another Wagovan shell, hmmmmmm...

    4x4 family truck?

    I think you and me have already talk about it.
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Bought the Toyo. Only paid $750.

    Wheelbase is only 7 inches different, hmmmmm.

    I'll probably fix and flip it though, make a couple Gs.
  • H_civic66H_civic66 Senior Wagonist
    The beauty of this whole thing is it is actually done with another wagon. Though it would probably be bad a$$ on the toyo frame, straight civic wagon lifted is a whole lot better.

    I was thinking like the ford sport track kind of thing.

    4 doors and a short pick up bed.

    fugly.. why not just buy a sedan and remove the decklid?
  • cause the wagon tail lights and license plate filler are the shit...?

    the bed would be really short though....

    there is a wagon in the heads up thread that got hit by a tree.... might be perfect for a 2 door truck conversion....
