Default Proline Dodge Power Wagon

I would really like to see Proline make a 1970 Dodge Power Wagon Body. I really like the look's of old cars/trucks from the 70's-80's. If they ever did come out with a powerwagon body I'd probably buy 2 of them. I just want to get your guys input on this. Here are some pics of it...

Who said bad idea? It says explain why you think of it that way.

It looks like a truck from one of those 80's TV shows......FALL GUY.
Did you like that show. I like the body style, just wondering what car or truck you'll be using it on.

I'd be using it on my warhead if it is big enough. If not I can make it work on my brushless rustler.

The older one is what most think of. But there's already a body out like that, it's called the nitro beer wagon, and it's made by trinity.

i dont think there could ever be too many different choices of bodies. and old trucks and muscle cars are always cool. but if body makers made less popular cars they would still sell some cause i think many people would want a body of something they have owned for real(i would love a volvo 740 wagon body for my stampede..lol)

I own two M37s, around 50-65; basically they are the military versions of the Power Wagon. I'm currently restoring them, and for parts I've bought a 1983 Dodge W150 and a 1974 Ram charger. The parts are also going to fix up my ol' 1983 W150 Nevada federal truck.

In my opinion the Power Wagon body from Pro Line is a little too square, if you ask me, and the fuel can would be better if it wasn't molded in, but I guess it's okay.
