The Ford Pinto is making a come back......

I'm waiting for them to bring back the old two-piece tailgates.

They used to provide a back porch of sorts.

Looks like a Mustang wagon to me.

Yes, the taillights say mustang for sure.

Had a great aunt who owned a full-size family station wagon back in the early 70's, and my cousins and I would pile into the back and away we'd go! We played board games, talked, and laid back on the floor looking out the windows as we'd pass under bridges and weave in and around all of the skyscrapers.

I personally like this version, the new version. Cars have little character these days... they all seem to look a like, whereas this wagon with it's faux wood paneled highlights separates itself from the ordinary, and I love the name, "Country Squire".
 
Iā€™ve owned 2 Pinto wagons.first a plain green one, then one of those ā€œwoodieā€ types. Great for all everyday activities. I later traded it for a Jeep Eagle, one of the earliest 4 WD suv types, be cause the Pinto didnā€™t do well on Pgh snows &/I had to drive in from the suburbs every day. The Eagle had a 13ā€ ground clearance & was great on snow but otherwise a mechanical nightmare of $. They hadnā€™t perfected the mechanical transition then.

I do but, "woody-wagons" only suit certain models ........ and IMO that is not one of them.

Sorry to go off topic but Where is your post about travel during the China Virus? I liked when you said " I'll say what I like." Did SHE get your thread taken down? SHE does that a lot! or is it still here?
