Vette(s): 1982 Black, ZZ4, Hooker Side Pipes, 3.55 Rear, Rebuilt & upgraded 700R4, All new suspension, brakes, & new Charcoal interior.
WOW, that rear wing looks like a structural member of a bridge. The Bow Tie recess is not bad. I think the hood is to help compensate for a bad steering box. I like the paint job, fits right in with the thyme of the car.

Actually Phil, there is alot of work involved in the picture you posted.  The windows are from a Greenwood kit, adapted to an Ecklers kit. 
  And, some of us happen to enjoy a Vette wagon.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  (my "toy #2", my dream car)

Man, If these cars were only painted RED, they'd look a lot better.

Actually, if cleaned up and done right, I think it could look good.  I've seen some other cars that were really extravagant (well beyond what I would want), but the workmanship was so good, you couldn't help but like them.

I agree with Dave. I think the vette wagon is pretty cool. I especially like the concept vette wagon that Chevrolet did on the C1, right around '53, '54, or '55.

The double wing thing going on in the rear is overkill and that giant shoe box on the hood could hold Shaq's shoes. Now just maybe if it was painted BLACK it might have some style. Although it was someones crazy idea that almost was complete even if it makes most of us gag.Big%20smile
 
P.S. The concept wagons were very COOL!
