    Start life as a wagon, tailgate gets chopped and moved forwad to behind the front seats. Chassis bracing will prob be required by engineers. I would chop rear 1/4 windows out of a VK/VL sedan and fit them where they have their winows making it easier to retro fit existing parts cutting down fabrication time.

    cheers

    must be a wagon, mainly for rear suspension mounts and tray is pretty well made already for you then.
