Solved TGF-74: Ford Consul Classic Estate by Hughes of Kenya (1/17)

I don't want to imagine that there is someone who finds difficult to identify the base model, but I want to know the coachbuilder, and how many of them have been built, for a point.

Ford Dealership "Hughes Limited" of Nairobi, Kenya converted 17 Ford Consul Classic 315 2-doors into station wagons (estates).

The car pictured is arrived in England in 1964

Perfect and complete answer.   I find It looks a bit like a Chevy Impala wagon.  A point for you.
