Volvo 24? Pickup???

posted by  someone claiming to be Extremely Talented on  Sun Jun 27 18:31 CST 2004 [RELATED]

OK, please don't shoot!!!...but does anyone have a photo they can post of a 245 made into a pickup truck?? I believe a very good looking job could be done on it, and it would dump a couple of hundred pounds of weight. I use mine exclusively for hauling stuff around, and often have to resort to my F150 only due to height of load in excess of 30 inches, or stuff too loond to allow the tailgate to close. I wouldn't be hauling loads of gravel or rock, so the load capacity is not a question. I'm a sculptor, and often have pieces that are just a bit too tall, or a bit too long...(I've also considered splitting the tailgate into a lift the window, drop the lower part deal). I have a variety of welding rigs, and a long background in street rods and old cars, so I have the equipment, skills, and know that appropriate reinforcements and bracing would be called for...The idea keeps haunting me...
