So these were custom conversions? Not factory correct?

Interesting, I wouldn't own it, but very interesting.

If I had money coming out my ears I would get an s2 or 951 conversion for a summer daily driver. (In the winter I would have a rally prepped early 944 or 924)

Yes, a company took several of the cars and turned them into wagons... so there are a few of them. I know I've seen an orange one and a silver one outside of this one.

That poor 456 is towing a greenhouse! IMHO that's the best ferrari built until the 612, ruined.

Ferry Porche had a similar car which was a 928, made for him in 1984 as a 75th birthday gift.
