There was a guy here locally that built one a few years back. Next time I see him I'll try and see if he has any pics of it.

Thanks cheese! Glad to see the large fenders on the short bed don't look stupid.

So the plan is to slap a one ton rear end and suspension under the rear and a 1 ton front suspension under the front, slammed of course and turn it into a tow vehicle for my 30 foot scarab speed boat! Should look pretty sweet hitched together!

Man, I hate to hear he's trying to sell that wagon. That's a one-of-a-kind car and he's already got a lot of work done on it.
OTOH, he's a top shelf customizer, can't wait to see what he comes up with on the truck. I'm thinking about doing something similar with my '94 SWB, already have the fenders. Maybe a big engine under the hood, 502 or bigger. I'd like to spin 'em all!
