This could indeed be a very interesting project. Certainly I've some ideas
about it and the 8466 could be a very good start to build such a Wrecker.
But why not give it a try yourself?
One reason why I build my cars is to show to others what could be possible
with limited parts and stimulate their creativety.
When I started to build my cars I certainly had not expected such a
satisfying result. So you may create an amazing Rebel Wrecker yourself...
Who knows. ;-)
Futhermore I'm not capable at the moment to start building a Wrecker because
most bricks I'll need are still in the GTcar and I don't want to break it
apart before I've the car digitalised. I am limited in my number of bricks
too you know :-(
When I can use those bricks again I most likely try to build a Wrecker
because it sounds very interesting. And I may use the puke green panels
because I want to try to build the car exclusively from bricks of the 8466
box..... ;-)
