Turn Wagon into a Hatchback? Possible/Impossible/Waste of time

the title says it all. would it be posibble to turn a gen 3 wagon into a hatchback. i just got back from a two month trip to jordan and palestine and i saw a LOT of modified cars, a two door dodge charger a four door lamborghini, and a lot of other cars that seemed very impossible...i saw only ONE gen3 camry in all of jordan, and it happened to be a wagon...
so i ask again, is it possible..anyone with the photoshop skills wanna shed some light on the issue...
thanks

what do you mean?

the only difference between a wagon and a hatchback is the style of the overall car (hatches are usually small 2-door cars with a 3rd door hatch, or a small sedan with added 5 door hatch)

the wagon's 5th door is already a "hatch"

go buy a coupe and throw a wagon door on it .... it will require good welding skills and some steel reinforcement, but it will be easy

what will be hard is making it look even half-way good

Anything's possible with enough money/time, but if you're interested in a 2DR wagon other manufacturers like VW have made 'em.
