A couple months back there was dialog regarding making a 59 Plymouth hardtop by converting a EKO Plymouth Wagon and EKO DeSoto Diplomat.
Sylvain's conversion of the discussed model is currently in the show case. Looks great.
Has anybody done the reverse conversion? How about a 1959 DeSoto Wagon? Has anybody tried it, how did it turn out?

How about a 1959 DeSoto Wagon? Definitively one of my projects, when I’ve realised that 1959 DeSoto station wagons used the rear wings of the Plymouth of the same year (with DeSoto rear lights) instead of the rear wings of the rest of the line. Thanks for the kind words about my Plymouth sedan. |

Dear Sirs:
Another proposition: the Ford Falcon. Make it as Ranchero or wagon. It will look good.

I just got an EKO Falcon in the mail, but I intend to turn it into the 1980's Argentinian version, with big square headlights and humongous (spellcheck?) rubber bumpers.
On the topic of EKO conversions:
Might there be a market for photoetched parts for supering EKO models? A set of chrome grilles and some suitable wheels would be fantastic, and I think that there might be a market... I really want to make something out of the EKO Giulietta, but am at a loss how to make a nice grille? ? ?
