I think it looks ok there but somehow I think if I tried something like an Olds version it would look like crap :rolf

Looks cool to me but would be alot better with some GN wheels
The wires dont looks so good.

Agreed, cool car but ugly wheels. It reminds me of the GN/Elky I saw online a few years back, very nice car/truck that was.

Yeah I had an old issue of BOP mag that had a GN Elky in it.

I saw this on V8buick.com too, guy says it's his daily beater

I always wanted to do a GN wagon conversion. I think it looks pretty badazz! I do agree those wheels gotta go!

That gn wagon looks sweet but the wheels are gay.You should do a 442 wagon

Well it does have 442 wheels from my wife's 442 and rear swaybar and springs off my 442 :thumbsup
It may get the buckets and console out of my 86 also, I would just have to see if there is a way to make the rear seat back work.
I was kinda eyeballing the 87 header. I am not sure it would be a bolt on, of course if it did go on the hood lines change so I would be forced to put the 4" cowl hood on. Talk about writing a check you car can't cash, a 307 and 2.29 gears with a 4" cowl :rolf

Here is a pic with a 2 door front but he made it match the wagon hood on the top. I 'm not sure that's even a Cutlass wagon.

VERY gay :rolf
ANd for as much work as the guy putinto the top of the header panel, the sides look unfinished

Yea I remember seeing that one before....blah. If the sides were made to work, plus being a 87-88 header, that might change it a bit too :D. I'd be happy with a wagon as is, especially a 78-81(?) ish Malibu front end with the single headlights.

Well I am going to need a winter beater for next winter, maybe I'll pick up a Cutlass to use the 87 front on :goof
