Did Ford Make A Mustang Wagon ?

Ford never made a Mustang station wagon, that's just wrong. Some folks have created their own Mustang wagons with mixed success. The factory Ford Mustang wagon is a fairy tale.

There was a 1965 Mustang Wagon, but it wasn't factory produced. "Yes, a 1965 Mustang station wagon did exist (well, sort of) and people have been making replicas ever since ..." Motor Trend

The October 1966 issue of Car and Driver revealed the Mustang Station Wagon to the world. However, the car went through several different designs in order to present the American automaker with options.
The body lines on the Ford Mustang made for a seamless transition to the Mustang Station Wagon. As reported by MotorBiscuit, Hagerty said that “Cumberford purchased a brand-new 1965 Ford Mustang and commissioned the build. The idea was to take the station wagon concept and sell it as an add-on kit for existing cars.”

Unfortunately, when the project was completed 11 months later, Ford wasn’t interested in the oddball car. The Mustang Station Wagon never made it past the concept stage. However, there was demand in the market for this long roof muscle car.

Apparently, Cumberford sold the conversion kit to Hobo, a California-based company. At the time, the kit was less than $600. Eventually, the concept for the station wagon was sold, and that’s the last anyone has heard of it.

That was until 2009, when a “story on Hemmings Daily detailed reader John Murphy’s experience of seeing the car parked on a street in a suburban New Jersey neighborhood in 1966,” MotorTrend reports. Murphy was able to snap some photos before he was chased off ... GTJerry

2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse “Wagon”

"...despite fears that ICE muscle cars are going the way of the dodo because of the EV revolution, Ford has given another traditional lease of life to its legendary Mustang with no electrified options in sight (yet). Instead, they are going all in on the track-related goodies, with variants for both aficionados, semi-pros, and professional racers (think GT3, GT4, and even Le Mans from 2024).

So, it’s a good day to be a Ford Mustang fan; it is even better to be a track enthusiast by the weekend. How about the rest of the week, though, especially if you are a (big) family-oriented person? Well, it seems there may be an even better solution aside from Blue Oval’s new Dark Horse (plus track-only S and R) Mustangs. Albeit, it is only a digital one, unfortunately.

Jim, the virtual artist better known as jlord8 on social media, clearly knows how to juggle with our car dreams, and now CGI cooks a more practical station wagon out of the all-new S650, seventh-generation Ford Mustang. But with a twist, because his “imagination land” knows better.

Thus, meet the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse Station Wagon, the “most track-capable 5.0-liter V8 street-legal Mustang ever” ... autoevolution
