Over the years, a small number early Ford Mustangs have turned up wagon/shooting brake configuration. Were these factory prototypes exploring a possible design direction for the classic pony car, or were they customs wrought by ambitious owners?
Last year Hemmings sought to untangle some of the mystery surrounding these cars. Short story: all of the Mustang wagons are customs. The Intermeccanica designs were reportedly submitted to Ford for consideration, but both Ford and the factory-backed Holman and Moody operation declined to follow up.
However, that’s not all of the story. Be sure to check out the Hemmings blog post and comments for a more detailed picture of how these custom Mustang wagons were born and how many are still out there in the hands of collectors and enthusiasts.
