I like that a lot...maybe after the kiddos are grown.....

that high roof line at the rear of the window can be fixed by chopping the b post down to make it flow better.
Something about the angle of the B pillar makes the car look bloated to me...like it's too long for the wheelbase. Could just be the camera angle, but the whole Elco window just doesn't fit the rest of the car, IMO.
Brian,
I know what you mean. The lines just don't flow. It could also be partially the camera angle.
I just don't like the B-pillar. I know the guy was trying to achieve the tri-five Nomad look, but it just doesn't cut it.
I've seen one done in one of my older magazines that used the same tri-five motif, but I think it was better appointed. The B-pillar had more of a curve to it...not as chopped off looking.

I would give my left nut for 64 MALIBU 2DR. Funny they don't pay much for a left one anymore.

Yeah, you and me both. I missed out on one a few years ago. Nice solid body , no drivetrain.
It pays to be in the right place at the right time.
Was there a Canadian version of that wagon? I'm sure they're super rare.

To do it right you have to use the wider doors from an ElCamino. That`s what I did. Started about four years ago. I will up date pictures as I go. Here is a web site.......
