Man they hacked the hell out of that one! Thanks for posting the pix! I always look for little details that I might not have seen before, but this one leaves me speechless!

Speechless is a good word, I've seen the WC Ambu done out like this, still a tough pill to swallow. However it does remind me a the work vans from Dodge & Ferd (think 61 Econoline) wasn't that crazy about them either.

Hey Bruce, remember the Dodge Li'l Red Wagon from the drag strip '60's? I'll bet you do!
