Actually, doc, it looks like they used a VAN:
The Kombi is the Volkswagon equivalent of the
'Chevy Van'.
Yes, every collector should have one . . .

I think you have a "station wagon". A very important piece of
equipment for the collector.

The car was a "Kombi", sorry I don't know the english

Isn't a van somthing larger? Large enough to stand upright in the back?
A "kombi" is the same height, with and length like a regular car,
only with a different back.

That's what I would call a station wagon. Where were the SUVs of the 50s.
For the historically inclinded, the "station" in "station wagon" were
the
buildings that were pretty far away on the ranch.

I was privileged to help restore 2 military Korean-era PowerWagons a
