There’s a lot we don’t know about the car in the images here. It’s listed as a 1969 Ford Mustang Wagon. Since Ford never made a 1969 Ford Mustang Wagon, this was some sort of DIY project. We are fans of wagons around here and this is a very cool car.
We wonder if this was some other Ford product that someone skillfully grafted the Mustang front clip onto or if this started as a 1969 Ford Mustang that someone skillfully grafted the wagon back onto. The only thing we aren’t very keen on is the rear hatch, which looks like it came off a Pinto (which it may well have come off of).
What we do know is that the car was for sale in Canda and had a 351 cubic-inch V8 under the hood that claimed to be in perfect running condition. The 351 is hooked to a 4-speed manual transmission. The car looks to have a Mach One hood complete with shaker scoop and is coated in what appears to be competition orange paint.
It has the hockey stripes similar to a 1969 Boss 302, which we presume is the look they were going for. The interior is enough stock Mustang that we think this was a 1969 Mustang that someone welded the hatch of a wagon to. We assume that the wagon section came off a Pinto. Wherever it came from, the entire project is clean and well done. check out this 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429.

This 1969 “station wagon” has BOSS 302 quarter panels (no top-of-the-quarter “scoops”) and coupe “pseudo-scoops” on quarter panels just behind the doors.
It also has a pre-1968 three-spoke steering wheel.
And the rear taillight panel is definitely `69 Mustang (the `70 panel is flat).
I agree with the rear window and frame being from a Pinto “Runabout” hatchback..
Oh; and it’s ‘Canada’ … not “Canda”. 😉
ADDENDUM: Got to remembering and realized that the coupe body also didn’t have the top-of-the-quarter “scoops”, so likely this started out as 1969 Mustang Grandé Coupe, as the Mach 1 package was only available in the ‘SportsRoof’ body style.
More evidence of it being a `69 is the ignition key in the dash (it moved to the steering column in `70).
I would love to see ford put out a Coyote powered wagon. Call it the Torino GT.
