Buick powered GMC Rail Depot Hack from 1920's in Southeastern AZ

[Trulyvintage]

I stopped to see my friend Nate who lives east of Tucson off the I-10
a few days ago - he has some cool old cars in his desert boneyard 

I shot a video of a 1920's Rail Depot Hack that has six doors
He acquired it from Tom Barrett of Barrett - Jackson over 40 years ago

Rail Hacks were used to shuttle folks & luggage from the train depot
to the hotels - Ford made most of them

I have never seen something quite like this before:

Not regularly seen but not completely uncommon either.  For what its worth they are the direct grandfather of the more widely known "station" wagons.

Thanks for the reply

Know of a link to any images of a GMC Depot Hack with 6 doors ?

Ford Depot Hacks are relatively common as far as hacks,
I can't find a similar GMC Hack .....

I'll have to dig through my pics when I get home to see if i have any GMC ones.  I have a Dodge one somewhere.

My thinking as well,

That would be one b@d@ss roadster with minimal modification ...
