Was this the wagon Anonymous saw
in the backround at the '59 Chevy shoot? Very nice. I can see why he
liked it so much. The patina is great
and check out that homemade roof
rack! Hope it runs and drives as good
as it looks!

like the pinstripe detail on the tailgate too!

Either my eyes are playing tricks on me, or the tires appear to be bowing outward.
If that's the case, I'll bet that he has some problems with front end allignments. Wonder
what it drives like. In any case, great find!

a little too intentional for an old parked car, but as a subtle custom classic... absolutely perfect. great sky, too.

@captaingizmo54
That bonkers negative camber is a deliberate custom job called onikyan in Japan. Outside of badass low-riding, the advantage escapes me. On the other hand, maybe he's just blown his axles . . .

Thanks for the heads-up adhoc. I have seen these cars fitted with those small mag
rims and bulging whitewall tires. I still have doubts about driving safety--especially
with that god-awful camber up front.
