My guess is he needed more room to load up on the 3 Buck Chuck.

That’s definitely different corvette wagon conversion like that weren’t completely uncommon in the 70s but not like this with that taller rear roof. Most conversions have back section that is the same height of the main roof.

The blue one is a nice, proper shooting brake. The white one is a truck cap modified to fit, (poorly).

The other "mods" are interesting too. The motorcycle muffler held up with baling wire. The Hitch welded in and what is that behind the hitch? A larger fuel tank? Doesn't look like the back hatch can be opened either.

The hatch opens, the spoiler is integrated into it.  Stunning.  Maybe a flat grey paint job will make it look reasonable, or not.

I think the hitch is there to prevent the gas tank from exploding in the event of a rear impact.
