Is Hooptiewagon the one with the Cutlass header panel and multicolored body panels?

Thanks for posting the pics, bro. A lot of awesome rides. Seems like quite a few wagons.
Nice variety of iron...

That would be him. I'm riding shotgun/crew on Drag Week with him. I can't wait; I'm giddy as a school girl!!!!

It went 13.11 pretty consistently on the Tour- BBO power. He wants to do a few things before Drag Week and has some issues to work out for long drives, but it did complete the Tour and made it home under it's own power.

That's cool. I'm sure you're looking forward to that.
You certainly can't miss Hooptiewagon. Is it actually a Cutlass Cruiser?

It started life as a Pontiac. He's had that car for probably the whole 15 or so years I've known him. It has a Pontiac dash. It's an ultra-low-buck build; dude is a walking automotive encyclopedia.

Like many of our cars, it's a conglomeration of parts from various G-bodies and other GM cars.
I give him a lot of credit being able to do it on a low buck basis.
So, it's basically a Pontiac Lemans or Bonneville wagon with Bonneville doors forward...except for the Cutlass header panel....and of course Oldsmobile power under the hood.
