You're post has me confused. You quoted Chibi's picture of a Caddy wagon. Which SRT 8 are you referring to? The Dodge Magnum maybe? Or are you considering dropping a SRT 8 into the Caddy? That would be one heck of a project. The first Cadillac-Chrysler hybrid. Hmm....

I happen to agree. If it is GM it should be all GM. If it is Chrysler it should be all Chrysler. The same with Ford. I see small block chevy's in everything that they shouldn't have.

I am glad that Viper wagon never got past the concept stage. Most of the Chrysler concepts that I have seen are really great and wished they had been built. This isn't in that group.

You would never do such a thing to such a rare wagon...But yes the hood, front fenders and nose along with other odds and ends will make it work. But why ruin such a nice piece of automobile history.
