I like the way you think. When I was a little Nipper I remember my dad having a 51 Ford at the same time that my mother had a 47 Ford Coupe. When I said I like the way you think, I was referring to what you were talking about squinting and and taking a more modern car and trying to make it look like an older one. I used to think about the Volkswagen squareback Wagons that if you did a little work you could make it look like a 56 or 55 Chevy. Admittedly at this current time, I would consider trying to scratch build different front Clips to put on the front of the Volkswagen Rabbit pickup truck. Sort of El Caminoize it a little further
It is one of the reasons that I bought it, to save my car Hobby. I'm pretty well maxed out on space, so I was thinking it might be fun just to put different interesting front Clips on there when I get tired of one pull it off and put something else on there and of course have it painted to match the rest of the vehicle. I'll play a guessing game with you you can try to figure out three or four choices that I might come up with. Give me a couple of guesses!!!PS I used to have a Dodge Rampage and also the spinoff Plymouth Scamp pickup. I like the curvature of the rear the cab into the bed area better than this rabbit, but unfortunately the quality of how the Dodge Rampage was built was a bit lackluster, and one day I took it to a recycling center so that I could drop off clean empty Soup cans and paper and so on, and while I was literally doing that I saw black smoke rolling out from under the hood. I didn't have an extinguisher with me, and nobody else nearby did, so I got to stand next to it and watch the whole thing burn down to the ground by the time the fire department got there. Thankfully I got full restitution from Hagerty Insurance oh, but it was not a fun experience. Now this rabbit pickup I have thankfully has a canopy or a cap or a camper top the lingo in what part of the United States you are in people called all kinds of different things. The reason I say that I'm thankful that I have the top on it it's because without it I think the bed looks too stretched out kind of out of proportion, but having the top on it kind of saves the look so to speak for me anyway, so I don't think I'll ever have it off.
