    I noticed one that's not really a 'concept vehicle' at all - it's a amateur photoshop job - the Ferrari 250 shooting break.

    Not a well-done article, IMO.

    Looks to me like they stole the wood from a mini and then modified the fit.

    A lot of those cars don't look like there designers thought much about the comfort of the driver or passengers.

    The second-to-last, the Ford Seattle-ite, was done up for the Century 21 Exposition in Seattle. I saw a picture somewhere, in a book a long time ago.

    That photo of the Firebird wagon was on the cover of Motor Trend back in 1977. The Lincoln Futura was turned into the original Batmobile for the TV show back in the 1960s by George Barris.

    The red T-Bird works rather well I think.

    HRP i like every one of those. If they had the Mustang or the Corvette I could have kept mine with room for the kids.
    There was one Corvette wagon like that silver one back home years ago.
    Yes I like the red T-Bird with wide whites and wire wheels.

    I couldn't find any other pics of these two on the internet....

    The others are all 'real'.
