Default Where is this wagon now?

G'day all!

I remember seeing for sale years ago an XY or XW Wagon which has an extended wheel base and extra seats fitted.

From memory is was done by Ford as a test mule, like their 4WD versions too.

Just wondering if anyone has anymore info or has even heard about this.

Lat time i saw it was white and had some big wire wheels on it

Thanks!

quite an interesting car that one - i remember when it was for sale last.

Great family car - if it ever comes up for sale again - I'd certainly have a serious look at it.

I've seen a similar metallic blue one, that only had four doors, at the Picnic at Hanging Rock a couple of years ago
