I’d love to build a wagon out of the 77-78 Dodge Monaco. Here’s a video I found on YouTube. Has anyone ever done a similar project in scale?

I have not done one of these but looking at it I would get one of the 4 door kits and you would just have to cut the roof down behind the back doors. You might be able to reuse the back window section. The rest would have to be scratch built but you would have a good starting point where you cut the roof and if the back window can be used it’s just making the sides. I’m not sure about the tail lights they may need some work to. I don’t have one of these kits so my details are roughly done.

I had thought of a car with similar rear taillights and roofline, but I forgot what I had in mind. I should have written it down. I’ve built a few of these kits now, but none have been box stock. I’ll have to do some thinking, but again, thanks for the help.

I know your thinking about that Monoco wagon. But check this out.

This guy makes lots of Mopar wagons in resin. Lots of C bodies too.
