More progress.  Things are really coming together now and I'm pretty jazzed.  I will need to hack off some of that protruding rear chassis, though.

The wind has been howling since early yesterday but I believe it will die down tomorrow which will allow me to get a base coat on the body.

I've been wanting to do a wagon of something, after seeing Ponch's a couple years ago it got me going on a few ideas. Just don't know what I want to use for subject matter though!!!!!! Maybe an old 60's Dodge wagon or something!!!!!!!! LOL, er not!!!!!!

How about a Dodge Magnum Wagon???
Thought there was one out at one time......model wise that is.....
That's what I wanted to use for the early CBP over on Fred's site back around 2006/2007, but they had not been produced yet...
That's where the Charger came to mind.....
For those that were on Fred's site back then, there was a CBP called, "Goofy Modified". No, not the Disney character, but to see what one's imagination would have been in using the wildest body to into a modified body...

Gettin' there!  The primary color is Valspar "Flat Caramel honey", the exact color I had in my mind's eye when I first dreamed up the color scheme for this car 6 months ago before I even started building it.
