    I've seen some amazing photoshopping here, but it's not something I have any ap***iude for.

    I'm about to pick up a new wagon to build a mild custom for my wife. lowered a little (cut for now, bags maybe later) new wheels, whitewalls, clean, probably change the grill.

    She's thinking two tone with metalflake somewhere (roof?). I think green flake is the current fave.

    Can anyone give it a shot please?

  2. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those very desireable(worth $$$) wheels? And a hard size to find in cusom wheels? Don't let someone crook you out of them.

    yes, i agree with both of you, but I have a 64 convertible too so the parts won't be going to waste. The 8 lug wheels are nice but won't cut it even on a mild custom..

    The grill looks different :confused:

    Is it a Canadian model or something?

    And the wheels look like the rare heavy duty ones too....

    Maybe kind of a rare wagon....then again, I am no expert.

    dunno, i don't pick it up until Saturday :D

    But the grill looks like my convert. The wheels are missing the caps and trimrings in the photo, but otherwise look the same to me.

    HulaZombie,

    What size tires ya runnin' on the rear? We just picked up a '67 Bonneville wagon for my wife and the rears on there now barely fit under the wheel well. Looking for something big enough for the load, but small enough to keep it down.

    What / who's bags did you use?
