Gasser wagon project - Lateral-g Forums

Well, in spirit, ha ha. I had bought the remnants of an old wagon almost a year ago, and have done nothing with is as I've been busy with my Firebird, and my wife bought me a fold up wagon as a gift, which I guess lit a fire in me to do something with the wagon I had already bought, so I spent this weekend in the garage making a chassis for it. Pics below. I painted it black but I'm not liking it. It hides all the work I did... So I'll repaint it silver at the least, but I'm thinking of having fun with it and using some type of sparkly metallic candy spray paint. Maybe I'll hit the "tuner" section of my local pep boys and see what they have to offer, ha ha

Cool wagon for going to car swap meets to get parts and other items. I like the patina idea, but I can also see it in silver for the frame and bright red for the wagon section with a black pull handle. Either way it'll be cool.

Thanks, guys! Today after work I picked up a can or metallic red and shot it quickly with that. It's good enough for parts hauler status now. I need to reinforce the steering arm as it twists, but, other than that it's done. Otherwise I'll over obsess on this and put in way too much time. Now I can resume working on the Firebird...
