Hello......this is something I have been working on......as you can see I don`t like to waste extra kit bodies......so I grafted a 69 Thunderbird front clip and a 69 Thunderbird rear quarter panels and rear end to a 66 Chevelle station wagon......covered the side windows for a panel look........added the middle part of the Chevelle hood to the middle of theThunderbird hood.......I did a little custom work to the rear wheel area....custom made bumpers........added some mirrors......it will be fully wired and plumbed.......almost ready for primmer......I will keep you posted if interested.......thank`s

Wow, I was curious what I'd see here, but I wasn't expecting what you've done. It will be cool to see how you finish this one. B)

Neat piece, very adventurous!

Just me, I'm not sure about the slats... I remember one car a few years ago that used something similar, a 50s Buick IIRC, but it was kinda 'temporary'. I'd rather see the wheel wells match, just my $.02... I like the bumpers, too.

You have a potential killer car here, stay on it and it'll kick b&tt in a little while!

John at first I did not like the mix of Ford and Chevy with the front and rear shots but wow you won me over. I am a HUGE wagon fan I really like where this is going.

John, my buddy, that is just nothing short of OUTRAGEOUS!! :D Way off the too kewl end! Holymoly. ;) Can't wait to see the progress on this one.

Keep it up! Wooo hooo ~~~

(Excuse me while I go trash all my custom projects. John has crashed the house!) B)

Very creative. The T-Bird is a 69, and Modelhaus has the stock tail lights for it. I'll be looking forward to seeing the final version.

That is simply wild, John. I love the way you've made everything seem to flow together. Have you possibly thought about lowering the front wheelwells as they appear to be much larger than what you have going on in the rear. Just a thought. Either way it looks awesome.
