    The coolest paint I've ever seen on a wagon was done by a red neck, sanded down to steel then painted with red primer rattle can and then taken to a paint shop and shot with pear clear. It looked to cool.

    How about a surfer wagon motif? Does your Ranch wagon have the wood apliques on the side? Course you might get some strange looks carrying a surf board around in OK City...
    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    Paint the body flat black body, paint the rims red and add some baby moon hub caps, that will never go out of style.

    Thumbs up I forget

     



    what 60's wagon it was, but it had a retractable roof in the rear. It dropped down and inside the fixed portion of the roof to handle tall loads or to be a cool semi-convertible.
    Ensure that the path of least resistance is not you...
