Project Wrong Way Regal Wagon

[Longroof79]

I'm not really a fan of angled b pillar probably because I don't like elcaminos that much.

Whatever floats your boat...just thought I'd make a suggestion...it's your car and ultimately your choices. I'll still continue to track your progress..😉

There's a Monte wagon I came across that had angle b pillars I'll post if I can refind it

Longroof it's a Malibu with a choo choo front

It's chopped that could be the reason I don't like it but just looks out of place also this one just popped up for sale. He wants alot of money for an unfinished roller tho

Didn't look real close or know that was a thing guy called it a Monte. Either way compared Malibu to Malibu I'd pic the bottom one

Zeth,
I'm not crazy about the first wagon either, I also prefer the second one...only that I'd prefer it more as a driver rather than a drag car or pro-street. I find that chopped tops on wagons look like crap...although I've seen some '50's wagons with a slight chop and they looked good.
Thanks for posting the pics..

No problem Im always looking for new pics for inspiration. I think what gets to me on the elco door's is it reminds me of my dad's old friends elco with a topper. And my car will be caged I still plan to run the wheels off it. I'm too broke to have several cars/ tow vehicles

Zeth,
Here's part of an an old article from a 2000 Hot Rod magazine. I thought you'd find it interesting...and plus give you some inspiration. 😉

Jack, If you recall, I was thinking of using the 2+2 front end on my buick wagon, since the century was so ugly. But, this regal conversion is a very cool build, and I'll be following it along for sure.
