Mad_Science: Awesome find. You guys always come up with the coolest old stuff! I especially like the way those builders incorporated the tail light treatment of similar era Ford passenger cars. And a truck with a trunk in the 50's. Just plain old cool. Definitely not found on ebay.
A year or so ago I found these English, I think I remember that, train transport vehicles and thought you might enjoy also.

Thanks again for finding this stuff and sharing it with we Hoons out here in Hooniverse.

Here in Brasil, this kind of thing still happens. Thing is, we are not as spoiled for choice as you people form the North of America so we have to adapt. From the eraly 70's up to the early 90's, imports were verboten and even as the economy once again opened and all sorts of foreign machinery started making their way here, their prices made them a major no-no among the general public. So the choice you had if you wanted a big, imposing vehicle that could haul you and the family everywhere with comfort you got yourself either an Alfa Romeo 2300, a Dodge Dart/Charger/Magnum, a Chevy Opala, a Ford Galaxie/ Landau or a big-ass converted pick-up. As time passed and more and more models went out of production, only the Opala and the pick-ups remained. And with time the conversions got better, some good enough for GM to hire one of the firms to do it as a production vehicle based on the Chevy D-20 – by the by, Chevrolet is the only GM division sold in the Brasilian market. – and they got sophisticated enogh to sport Recaros and TVs, huge achievements for the time. Today people still convert Ford F-250s into SUVs as there's no such option on the market and the closest thing in size stickers for over 200k Reais which is roughly 115k dollars in current exchange rates. I just wish we had more V8s available here….
