Description
Yes, I decided to remaster it. You know, the one that wasn't actually mine, but Fletch's. That of which was actually a remaster of an early unreleased attempt be me. Most interesting, I know.

The Powell Sport Wagon was a pickup (despite being called a wagon) that was produced by the Powell Motor Company between the years of 1954 to 1957. The Sport Wagon was built on the refurbished chassis of 1941 Plymouth, scavenged from junk yards throughout California. It also used refurbished six-cylinder Mopar engines (YEH TEAM CHRYSLER). Other parts were scavenged off of old forklifts, crazily enough (and the chrome was scraped off of old Fords. Talk about mish-mash).

Another fun thing to note is that this is often considered to be the first crossover, since it was a pickup based off of a car, to put it in the most basic of terms.
Of course we know that's completely false. Jeep was obviously first with the Jeepster.


gjritter likes to call this a UTE. Feel free to call him out for that in the comments.

It's my all time favourite vehicle, of course I'd build it in BR!

This isn't nearly as obscure as some other ideas I've yet to put into works, however...

Great work! Nice to see such an obscure vehicle in BR.
