Hoonigan and Travis Pastrana’s Family Huckster is the Wildest Gymkhana Mod

Hoonigan and Travis Pastrana have finally detailed the specifications for its wildest Gymkhana mod. Revealed earlier this year and dubbed the “Family Huckster,” it’s an all-wheel-drive and carbon-fiber-covered 1983 GL station wagon.

Hoonigan’s KMC 8-Spoke Wagon has a wide body kit and tubular space frame. To keep the weight down, its panels are made from carbon fiber, and active aerodynamic add-ons like flaps integrated into wheel arch flares are integrated. The huge back Wing of the flaps can be deployed automatically or manually.

Inspired by the 1980s, a custom-made 12-inch digital instrument cluster is integrated into the wagon, along with blue carbon fiber and a 1983 GL radio that matches the blue plastic seen in Subaru during the era. 

Family Huckster is powered by a Subaru-sourced flat-four churning out 862-HP and uses a six-speed sequential transmission. A long-travel suspension based on World Rally Championship specifications connects the car to the ground. For contrast, an entry-level 1983 GL was equipped with a 1.6-liter flat-four that produced 67 horsepower and 81 pound-feet of torque. 

Later in 2022, the wagon is expected to play a prominent role in the next Gymkhana film.

Pastrana’s Family Huckster debuts at the Hillclimb Shootout at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed next week.
