    Found this pic on my hard drive...

    Looks like one of those mobile canteen trucks that go to job sites.

    Anyone know anything about this concept?

    i forgot about those:oops:

    looks like Elvis's coffin:D

    I would say its more like something you would find at the farmers market
    to keep the fresh produce cool. With a 400CI engine, the AC would blow cold
    :rofl:

    I like those hinged side windows. hmmm... I know a guy with a glass drillpress. Nah! Not this time. But I got my wife's brothers and mechanically adept in-laws (many of them are too educated to get into a junkyard), in Mexico, looking around for another F/Z/Cougar wagon. Just a sucker for that no-rust punishment. :D

    I could bring it back on the train!

    Firebird Wagons...

    Here's a site with some info on the concepts...http://www.indiemonkey.com/firebird/
    Here's a Mustang wagon for you...you can find it by doing a google image search. Here's a more updated one. Only exists as a doctored photo, but
    I think it looks cool. (y)

    I actually like the Mustang but I think the roof should carry back more so it didnt' look so much like a hatchback.

    Thanks for the info! The new Mustang wagon is sharp, especially with the glass roof.

    Here are some more pics of mustang wagons
