In 1976, Ford decided to play around with the idea of a Mustang wagon. They decided to base it on the Mustang II platform and equip it with a roof rack and woodgrain inserts on the sides. In those days, Chevrolet had the Vega three-door station wagon on offer, so Ford wanted to compete in that market segment, as well.
However, Mustang fans are grateful that this car never went beyond the concept stage. After all, a Mustang station wagon with wood grain in the typical ‘70s fashion would've killed any sporty characteristics this model barely even had. The Mustang II had almost destroyed the Mustang's reputation from the '60s, so a wagon version would have killed it for good.
