Peugeot CinqZeroBajaCamino [Down On The Junkyard]

Can’t find a Dangel Peugeot truck in the States? No prob- just build a 505/Subaru mashup! That’s what happened here, but some tragic series of events put this cartruck on the road to The Crusher.

Cameron found this fine machine in a Southern California junkyard:

The unbelieveably long-lived XN6 lump. This machine, properly maintained, will run forever.
Drivetrain: BA10/5 transmission. Rear axle is whatever Peugeot put there in the body of factors. There’s a driveshaft, also.
Notes: Found it in a junkyard in Sun Valley, CA and had to get pictures. I mean, it’s a 505 wagon that’sitting been hacked into a Subaru Baja - good, sort of. Unfortunately, I was unable to rescue it from the crusher, but at least I can prove that *someone* really did do this to a 505. It’s indeed kinda cool, in a backwoods-tech sort of march.
Hummer SUT? Screw that, this baby purely rocks!
I found this car a hardly any years agone in a particularly notorious Sun Valley, CA junkyard (no, not the one with Fiat 500, Renault 5, and Citroen SM on the walls, but it’s about a mile gone from there) and got the photos on their grounds while heart yelled at by the employees, Have tp concede, I confer miss that place, and, as a past 505 possessor… I do lust after this vehicle’s remains. The 505 was France’s Dodge Dart, and this seems like an oddly fitting end for one of its finest cars. “She’s the last of the rear-drive Peugeots, Max…”
