GM actually made the omega in to a ute or pick up. The 1997 - 2005 Holden commodore was based heavily on the omega. The Commodore came in three body types Sedan, Wagon and Ute.

Just to let you know the Sparks from the angle grinder on Phil will probably cause rust as the steel embeds itself due to it's heat and speed. I know this causes glass to be ruined (as I've had to replace it after someone else's careless grinding) so I imagine the same is true for paint which is comparatively soft
