Honda element,scion ,Aztec etc.I put the Flex in this category, but have wondered what if Ford would build a boutique edition that picked up on the wonderful '49/'51 2door wagons. Well you pretty much nailed it.( My only change from your work would be adding wood to the side window frames)Your headlite treatment that updates the '51s grill did not go un noticed,nor did your front fender emblem that hints at the early cars fender only emblem.Is there a suggestion of a spare tire on the tailgate?

Seems like a Country squire treatment for the Ford Flex would also be an obvious move.Some Assembly Requiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591764462882988675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813903385593410866.post-69135643882024424692012-02-24T07:35:50.484-05:002012-02-24T07:35:50.484-05:00These are all terrific -- my favorites are the 40 ...These are all terrific -- my favorites are the 40 Continental (it just looks SO right!) and the MKW (a vast improvement on the MKT -- it's like Lincoln took your idea and made it lumpy and dumpy).<br /><br />What about your your 300 Sport Wagon -- that would make a nice Town & Country -- and how about an actual current Town & Country with wood? That would get some tongues wagging!<br /><br />Paul, NYCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813903385593410866.post-42969850827745666252012-02-23T22:31:31.405-05:002012-02-23T22:31:31.405-05:00they're creating hamburger in a test tube now,...they're creating hamburger in a test tube now, so maybe scientists will create wood in a lab someday, then there will no excuse not to make my cars! : )Casey Shainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654097774209894695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813903385593410866.post-85586593710920826102012-02-23T22:27:07.886-05:002012-02-23T22:27:07.886-05:00Carbon fiber is what wood use to do some 70 years ...Carbon fiber is what wood use to do some 70 years ago: an inexpensive agent in place of metal. The inorganic substance simply has no personality or texture to it like wood. Wood is kind of like a figure print where two are not alike and can never truly be replicated. If science could figure out away to trees perhaps Casey's wooden covered cars can once again become a reality. <br /><br />A Buick Encoure in mahogany would look interesting, lol.Korean Car Maniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06413162812043485242noreply@blogger.com
