Seems pretty expensive for what it is, but man, it's cool looking.  https://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/d/1959-amc-rambler-station-wagon/6459743255.html

I had to look twice, I thought it must be missing shock towers or something.

I've always wanted a 59 Rambler wagon, but make mine an American.

I can't get that engine bay shot out of my head.  What do you put in when you have that kind of space?  Duramax?  A V12 made of two Ecoboost V6s?  A W24 made of two Phaeton W12s?  Several dozen small engines from lawn implements?

 Well he's got an Infinity. What is in My Minds Eye isn't a Challenge Car But a Long Distance Cruiser, at 10 times the Challenge Budget.

And just Look At those FINS.

A W24 if the perfect motor here.  And plenty of room for the billion computers that go with it.

I sent the link to my wife. She ignored it, does that mean I can buy it.

It’s not all that big, but a Lexus V8 would be awesome in that.

We had a 1960 version in my family and they are rust buckets so for this one to have survived as well as it has is almost a miracle!  Both the front and rear suspension are just weird.  Any resto-mod plans will require all new suspension. Which may cut into the engine bay space depending on what the builder goes with.
