Mustang wagon?

[mat777]

I have owned this CD now for 10 years and have always been intrigued by the car on the cover:



Is the mustang estate a one-off or were there a coachbuilt run of them produced? Do any other photos of the car exist (particularly of the back)? I'm assuming its a period stock photo and not something staged especially for the CD cover, in which case is the original photo out there somewhere and does the car still exist?

Thanks,

Matt

apparently intermeccanica made a show car that has since been replicated by various firms and private builders.

this one was on ebay for ages at around $70k iirc.

Hi Shirt, thanks for the interesting links! It definitely appears to be like the Country Squire-based pillarless roof in link one, rather than one of the more official intermeccanica job - and I think the pillarless design looks prettier anyway. Juding from the photos, I wonder if the Jalopnik car is the custom wagon on the CD cover, stripped of its hot-rod gear and restored to semi-standard? there cant be too many of the one-off pillarless jobs about? Shame there are no licence plates in either picture to confirm or refute this
