Here's a few I built in the mid-80's (darned if I'm not getting old...)

Pinto wagon converted to a Ranchero with a Mustang II front clip, 351W with dual-quad hi-rise.

An AMC Gremlin, if you look at it long enough you'll see I'm not kidding. flat-4 engine, rear suspension from an Indy car, fender flares from a Dodge Omni/Charger

Something I call Dats-Am, a Datsun P/U with a TA bumper/grille assembly and a SBC for power. I built this for a former friend because this was being done to his 1:1 Datsun P/U, little did I know that he would use this model to save $10 by entering it in a World of Wheels car show (and therefore getting in free). The jerk got a 3rd place trophy for something he didn't build!

The Ranchero and Gremlin are actually headed back to "The Workbench" for some finish/refinish work.

Those are great ideas and great builds too. That pinto idea into a Ranch' is slick, and topping it off with the Stang II nose is the cake.
