1971 Flat Top Olds 455 Power Ultimate Retrofied Machine
I saw this on Craigslist, my daughter just moved to Wilmington NC and I have to see what they have.
Toronado 455 powered with front wheel drive factory, all steel body.
Not a true wagon or Vista Cruiser but it does cruise and the windshield probably has more square feet than all the glass on one.
Looks like peeling woodgrain on one side so in the same fake wood family.
Drive it off a cliff and it will survive (don't know about occupants), rumored to be indestructible.
Can be purchased by the right owner, probably check you out to see if you deserve to own it like a Ferrari Enzo.
And it does have a flat top, and sides, and front, and rear...

I can see that thing chopped about fifteen inches in the front and about..........fifteen inches in the back, maybe channel the body down six inches and then.....put big 20s on the front and the back with a midnight blue pearlescant paint.

I may just take a look at it for kicks if the guy still has it in a few weeks when I go down there for Christmas, my wife told me I can get it if we win the lottery.
I found out after researching a little that they were made about 15 miles away from me, small world.
There is a brochure for it on evilbay, check the artist's rendering of the 455 in action by the ocean at sunset, would make a nice poster.
