Why build a shanty when you can do this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ice-...9423571?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item2c609c6653 Vehicle Specifics for 1983 AMC Eagle all wheel driv Vehicle History Report Summary 1983 AMC Eagle all wheel driv VIN #:1ACCK355XDK152986 American Motors Eagle set up for ice fishing. Holes have been cut in the rear floor pans, with wooden covers. Jig set up. Car is in decent shape, could be a good restoration candidate. Engine runs great, all wheel drive is locked in and works good. transmission shifts well, the brakes are good in front, poor in rear. The car stops, but the pedal goes down far due to the rear brakes. The gas tank leaks so it is bypassed with a boat tank in trunk. Previous owner set it up for ice fishing. Drive to your favorite lake and fish away, no need for a ice shack. I would not drive it far because of the brakes, should be towed or bring a trailer, but to each is own. Comes with a spare alternator, radiator, transmission, transfer case, and extra hubcaps. I thought this would be great to go fishing with, my wife, not so much. Help me keep the peace and buy this car from me. Please call 920-296-8288 to set up a showing. The car is currently in Waupun, Wi.
I'll give the guy credit for originality. Looking at the exterior, I never would've suspected it runs off a boat gas tank or the brakes were questionable, at best. It looks like it would have been in better mechanical condition.
An ice fishing shack that's been converted into a car would be even more unique. I guess it's better than sitting outside, with the heat on in that Rambler you wouldn't have to hold the worms in your mouth so they don't freeze.
Well. It would reduce the need to make stops on road trips. ewwah Fresh spaghetti any one? No need to swallow. It will crawl down your throat for you! That's innovation.
