[QUOTE="AlongCameJones, post: 3692692, member: 47875"] I was thinking along the lines of a full-size wagon like a 1970's Ford Country Squire or Chevrolet Kingswood Estate or a 1960's Chrysler Town & Country. I would want enough room in back for two German shepherds behind the second row seat. None of the likes of those land boats were ever hot-rodded right from the factory. The only practical shepherd hauler for me today is a Toyota truck with a shell on the back and a Breezer connector between the cab slider and the shell. I don't care about speed or 1/4-mile times anymore. A large heavy automobile made for peeling rubber is a SLED or a LEAD SLED. Detroit put out a few of those 1/4-mile boats in the 1960's as the 1963 Pontiac Catalina 421 3 deuces 4:11 gears and others. They were trunk sedans, coupes or convertibles. No wagon bodies and no Lincoln or Caddy badges. Precious few SLEDS had factory a/c. [/QUOTE]
