Panel truck eye candy - Give us some

Just stumbled onto this '50 Chevy Suburban:

 

"Eye Candy" with front end damage?
Did you stumble into it?

 

Is this a painting or a doctored photo? Hard to tell. What's that black thingy on the side glass?

And here's a panel for 'ya. These are real rare in the HHR world, but I saw one yesterday just like this......HHR SS AA5 (AA5 is the option code for a half-panel)

 

Sorry Krash but to me those classic car wannabes are an abomination. Horrific.

Although not a fan of these, I think KK's does look OK...... if I remember has a smooth front end/bumper where as this version reminds me of a cattle guard on a old steam train.

 

Yeah - wouldn't mind the power of the SS version, but I hate the way the front end looks compared to the stock version.

 

Almost three years ago when in central Illinois I almost bought a red panel HHR. Kind of glad I didn't. Yet my friend has the wagon version in gold and I really like it.
Also I have a 1948 Chevy panel truck 350/350 auto partially finished as a custom RV puller in my garage just sitting. It also was supposed to been red. Have everything except the AC and ambition to finish.
Now that nice 1950 suburban is making me feel bad. I have a nice new straight bumper for it.

 

Not exactly a panel truck. It's more a panel delivery. However, I'm posting it, because it's surrounded by plenty of eye candy:

If that silly bird is only a decal, it could get removed, using a hair-dryer: http://www.motorstown.com/imgs/41316-chevrolet-panel-truck-8.html



Here's a 4-door International harvester. I wonder what the antenna's for. Maybe, a secret agent deathsquad was commissioned to hunt down interterrestrialal aliens who may have survived spaceship misshaps:

51-52 Ford paddy wagon





57 Chevy



Citroen

 

Dude! I want it!!! I'd putter my happy @$$ all over Chicago in that thing with a big @$$ smile on my face. Paint it, and do some etching on the windows. Set up a traveling carving station in the back with my logo carved into on those back windows. Oh, yeah!

 

Heres another pic of the Citroen for you Xav.

 

Thanks, Jim! Pictures have been saved to my ever growing picture folder. I'm currently at 1500+ plus pictures of car... All but 271 of them are wagons or hearses... My wife calls it my addiction... But I'm not addicted. I can stop collecting pictures of wagons and hearses when ever I want... or when the internet disappears, which ever happens first.

That thing is perfect!

 

Here's it's bigger brother (Citroen HY):

Differnt things which can be done with them:









You could even fill them with squad motorized bikes for overly-friendly policemen:



Their engines are nearly identical to those of the DS:

 

Well, since you're showing some delivery vans also, here's my old IH Metro. I really miss it.
