Project Wrong Way Regal Wagon

[Longroof79]

Interesting project so far. At first I couldn't see your vision...It looks like it's coming together nicely.
I guess you're not going with any kind of tailgate?

No going back now! This is a really cool project. Can't wait to see it finished. Looking back at your GN wagon concept I noticed it had t tops. I don't think t tops were ever part of the plan but man that woulda been cool if it did. You'd have the only t top wagon that I've ever seen.

I payed someone to do a quick rendering they picked they original photo. I'm not good with glass in fact I might just throw a hammer thru the side glass so I don't go thru the chord of tediously trying to remove them followed by hopeless regret of them blowing up in my face like the rear window

I will be hand building a hatch. No gate on this one

Starting to look pretty cool.

I was talking to my friend last night about the car told him I need to eventually cage it. He said to come borrow his bender. I told him that I don't like borrowing stuff, I don't have good luck. Asked him if he'd sell it, he said sure, 200$ with a 1.75 die. I couldn't get the money out of my wallet fast enough so now I have a tube bender. Probably mount it on the slab outside (I'm putting an addition on my tiny garage) and just mount the bender when I need to use it until my barn goes up

Could make that $ pretty quick making main cabin area cages 😉

Alright guys would like a little input. I've got one side almost framed in I'm thinking the b pillar is a little skinny so I took a couple pics and added tape so you guys can seen what I'm thinking

No tape

3 in wider

Slant

Im kinda leaning towards the 3" straight up and down but would like your guys opinions. We got the glass cut out the front of the roof centered up and tacked and made the filler panels for the open area and tacked everything in solid. Also cut out old b pillar I wasn't needing

I still like the idea of elcamino b pillars and door glass. Give a nomad vibe

I think I like this. It matches the angle of rear of the wagon.

May cause a blind spot though.

Maybe make it a little smaller?

Are you putting glass or metal in the opening?

I like the no tape the best. You really have that coming along!
