    I don't recall them making a ute though but . . .

    And if it is how on earth did it find its way (in that guise) to the States?

    There's got to be a story there Em; do you know anything about it?
    I'm thinking it's an old '56 Dodge 4-door that someone cut the mid-section out of......looks kinda silly to me!

    I went back and looked again, this time stopping the frame; and do you know what?
    I think you're right on the button!
    Even to the comment of it looking silly.

    (But that's not our business . . . the owner/builder obviously likes it, and really, that's all that matters.

    I TOTALLY AGREE, Johnboy, but along with his right to build it comes our right to have an opinion about it! At the end of the day, I suppose no one really gives a rat's arse about either but it makes for some fun conversation as long as nobody gets their panties in a wad.....
