Dog Wagon DeLuxe (Jan, 1959)
Dog Wagon DeLuxe
DOWN Missouri way professional handler Bill Wunderlich of Wentzville hauls his valuable field trial dogs in a Ford Ranchero, “customized” to house seven dogs, each one with a private, ventilated kennel carpeted with cedar shavings. John Mueller of St. Louis designed the $1,100 custom coach-work which weighs only 500 lbs. •
500 lbs. would be just about the limit for the cargo capacity of the average Ford Ranchero (or Chevy El Camino, for that matter).

Even with the extra leaf spring, the back end is sagging dangerously.
