Are only factory produced wagons allowed or can fantasy wagons be built also?

To be clear by fantasy wagons do you mean like you take a Camaro and make a wagon out of it?

Any wagon , build an existing kit or use parts to build a kit into a wagon that was never available. In short when its done it should be a 2 door or four door with a station wagon body !!

Quick question...Could a panel truck (like a 53 chevy panel) be considered a wagon? Wasn't quite sure about this, so i thought id ask first. Thanks!

John and I were talking about this through PM and I said panel truck are more like trucks to me but we'd continue our discussion here to see what you guys thought. but I've been thinking that the 53 Chevy might be ok. Not like the 55 Ford panel that is way taller. What do you guys think?

I feel a panel delivery is just that a panel delivery. Now if you want to take and cut open the sides and make it into windows then it would be a 53 chevy wagon and it would work.

I see a wagon as a family style vehicle with windows , I looked at my 53 chevy, and it looks like a van, for hauling stuff, not people, but down this end of the world we look at things a bit differently to you guys. Just my opinion though.

Thanks for your thoughts guys, i can go with something else. I was kind of thinking it wouldn't fit the theme.

My thoughts on this is if it has front sheet metal ( fenders,hood,grille ) and built on a truck chassis like a pick up truck it is a Panel truck , Exp. 50 Chevy ( Grave digger M. T. )... 55 Ford and so on ... but if it has sheet metal ( fenders, hood , grille ) like a passenger car it is a Sedan Delivery built on a car or station wagon chassis Exp 53 Chevy , 66 Nova , 58 Chevy and so on ... So I think if it looks like a passenger car in the front it would be OK , but if it looks like a truck that' a big NO , just my 2 cents worth , but Admins have the final say , hope this helps

I'm glad we brought this up. So it'll need windows to qualify as a wagon. Panel trucks and Sedan deliveries of any type are not allowed, right Beast?

What is the rules on posting this build any where else before completion date?? Can i post the build up on my Aussie forum or not mate? It doesn't bother me either way, just don't want to do it and get frowned upon, they can wait if need be, everything i do gets priority here.

This is a sedan delivery, which could be converted into a station wagon... 2016-02-09_05-21-27 by ratrodfanbobcat, on Flickr This is a 53 Chevy panel truck. It could be converted into a "suburban" but not much else lol... 2016-02-09_05-23-51 by ratrodfanbobcat, on Flickr 2016-02-09_05-21-58 by ratrodfanbobcat, on Flickr

Yes , by virtue of its name, a truck is a truck a sedan delivery is a sedan delivery and a station wagon is a station wagon. Now you can make anything a station wagon .
DeeCee as with all our contests we would prefer that JsCs is its coming out party. The exception being Bracket Racing

I was thinking the same if a woody would make the grade.
I was looking at doing the Dan Fink Speadwagon if it qualifies.

can it start from a glue bomb or does it have to be a new kit? I have a gluebomb 65 chevy wagon I want to bash up with a new Z/16 kit. if not, that's OK, but by God I WILL find something and I WILL participate in this one, so help me....

I have a gluebomb 65 chevy wagon I want to bash up with a new Z/16 kit. if not, that's OK, but by God I WILL find something and I WILL participate in this one, so help me.... 2. Must be a new build. The kit does not have to be brand new but it does have to be a new creation. Kit bashing is allowed as long as, again, the creation is a new one. If you decide to do a resto project for MOTM, it should include a change of paint, engine, and maybe some re-upholstering and tires. What a real resto is. Your progress pics should include the before picture to avoid it being questioned. Read more: jerryscherrys.freeforums.net/thread/28/rules-show-updated-17-14#ixzz40NDNVMpLThis is the rule that covers rebuilds, notice it states, " should include...." I don't think all ALL these items are require, but suggested. I know of one instance where the original engine was allowed to stay in a rebuild and it was ok.

ok, well the plan is to take the 4 door glue bomb wagon and turn it into a 2 door pro street/touring (not quit sure yet). it will have the rear body off the wagon and the front clip and doors from the Z/16, not sure where the motor will come from, semi custom interior and a mishmash chassis. so i don't think it is a rebuild but i want to make sure. thanks for the info. i saw this but did not associate it with this build.

I think I read this under motm, but Im sure the same rules apply. Admin?

You'll be fine, just look at what Paul (gardnerpag) is starting with.
