Thanks to James and crew for reviving memories of the “Car & Driver” series of Boss Wagons from , and I’m guessing at this, the ’60s-’70s.
As a long roof fan, I built a 2002 525I Touring and replaced the drive train with an m5 engine and gear, keeping only the steering rack of the 525i. It is not a race car, but it is a quite satisfying touring car and I should have kept it.
Wow James, nice car. Has all the good stuff on it too!
By the end of the second paragraph, I’m thinking BMW Sedan Delivery…
Start with a 2-dr coupe body, and graft the back half of the wagon (roof & tailgate) onto it. Solid panels aft of the doors (no side glass behind the longer coupe doors). Maybe re-profile the trailing edge of the door glass to match the angle at the tailgate.
Should probably work out the details on a 1:18 scale model first!
Maybe a 5 Series would have better proportions for a starting point…
