About the closest thing you can find to a Mustang wagon. Pretty much all 1g Mustang parts will work, with perhaps some fiddling. Imagine a Shelby GT350 Falcon wagon.

Id rather imagine a Thunderbolt Wagon if it has to be Ford....

So Pete Brock's Shelby American Falcon delivery?
It had a race-prepped Cobra 289 and was used to tow cars and carry parts around for Shelby. It's also where the GT350 got its iconic paint job.

You've got an Oz-falcon in your picture, which might make for some variance. I'm not sure how sharp the divergence is for Oz wagons, but their ute had the fuel tank in a different place, different doors/cab length, and a number of other perverse changes. I know it's just for illustration, but it's an interesting note.
That being said, the use of Mustang parts is easier when you have a post '63 - the lower ball joint was enlarged (at least on US Falcons) in '62 and the upper one in '63 to fix wear issues, so unless you're swapping spindles, Mustang lower and upper arm goodies and bushings and whatnot are best in a '63+. The upper arm bushing also changed type in '62.
