> shooting brake = station wagon
I think this is only the exclusive sort, such as an Allard or a Aston-Martin
(yes, I have seen pictures of both). The more normal Ford estate car or the
like would not be called a shooting brake. I believe there was a
horse-drawn wagon called a shooting brake in pre-automobile days.
As always, I remain open to education by my FATP. My usual authority is
Mike Causer, a Lotus buddy who has lived in Cambridges. Massachusetts and
England.
