Ford actually commissioned various prototypes to be made. There was even a 69 with a rumble seat, a 66 retractable hard-top - and a 4 door! Also a 67 wagon. And I've been called a train-spotter before.

Looks better than the old Zephyrstation wagons made by Ford, and probably is better handling.

The 65 station wagon was built by Carrozzeria Intermeccanica by private commission but never caught on. Also in 65 Bertone built a mustang for the New York Motor Show, flip up headlights and a body like a Interceptor/sunbeam Rapier. At the 1967 Chicago Auto Show the Mustang Mach 2 was on show as a mid engined 2 seater, looks like a Ferrari 308 GT but it also never went into production but all these cars are out there somewhere.but who cares, its just another Mustang aye.

The Muzzy looks good - well, as good as a wagon of one of them could do. Like the colours too.

That green '66 is a rather neat design concept and as far as yank wagons go quite nice to look at. Obviously the guru's at Ford didn't think it would get the "green light" and canned it. Car sales in those days the Mustangs sold like "Hot Tomallies" and a wagon version would have created a "niche" all it's own.

They obviously got a Yanke body and worked it over.
Just went for a Google, but turned up nothing.

it's been years since i've seen a pic of a mustang wagon - but i don't think any of these were the pics i remember seeing.call me a freak but i like the green wagon - just a handy size for throwing the kids gear in for a sunday drive.
but i also liked the 53-54! corvette wagon concept that had a roof like a nomad.

Ford only ever commissioned the wagons to be built, as with some of the others - those others mentioned in #10 are concept cars. Then of course there's the prototypes, of which many of the final production cars evolved from.
There's been a rebuild/copy done of that Corvette.
An XY Coupe would make a good project - with a 427 Cammer. (I'd give my left one for one of those engines)
