Description[]
The Cruise Bruiser is a depiction of a demolition derby station wagon featuring no windows, a giant blown engine, and a raked-up gasser-like stance resembling a Carolina squat. The wagon has an anchor in the back to keep it stable on the tracks. This casting is modeled after the Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser.
