Default Suggestions for FGII Wagon Designs.

G'day everybody,

I draw cars. And I am a big Falcon wagon fan (maybe because my family has owned a AUII Futura wagon for 9 years?). I, like many, was sad to see that Ford Australia wasn't planning to continue making the the Falcon wagon.

So, using my drawing skills, I've been planning to draw a FG Falcon wagon. No, not a sports wagon like Holden's Commodore. A full size, proper, wagon. it will be a big wagon, but I intend to design it to both look really good, but still have a very large amount of room inside for whatever anybody throws at it. I intend for it to be larger than the previous wagons, both inside and out, but not so much bigger than it is a pain. It won't turn out to look like the awful wagons Holden produced before the Sportwagon. It will be long, sleek, and stylish (if I don't muck it up).

Due to me being extremely busy this year with school and other activities and events, I haven't had time to get started on this project. And now with the FGII coming soon, I've decided that my wagon designs will also be FGII. I'm going to draw all the available sedan models, in wagon form. XT, G6, G6E, G6ET, and of course the XR models, as well as an AWD wagon, for those who don't need a big 4wd, but would like a little more capability. I'll also try to revive to type of factory bullbars that were available for the AU models. The bar will be intergrated into the bumper in the same sort of way. I'll also draw fully optioned models (some options will be my own ideas).

Why have I got this thread? Well, I want to know what you think would be good. Design suggestions (such as roofs), options (weather sheilds, roo bars, nudge bars, roof racks), anything, for any of the models. I will keep the basic front end styling the same as the FGII Falcon sedans, but the rear will be quite different.

Also, any pictures of the FGII Falcons would be helpful. Wheels, the front, anything really. Just so I can get it looking as accurate as possible.
I think that's all I wanted to say...
Hopefully you guys have some awesome suggestions for me to think about.

Thanks

- Christopher
