So does this qualify as a "shooting brake"?

Just curious if this would qualify as a shooting-brake, as opposed to a station wagon

"Shooting brake" is just a fancy European term for "station wagon," so use whichever words you like

("shooting brake" at least carries connotations of sportiness)

This depends on perspective. If you happen to think shooting brakes are awesomer than wagons, it's a shooting brake. If you think wagons are awesomer, then it's a wagon.

Tldr, that thing is awesome! (Pricey for me, but probably not for most of the inhabitants of streamboat....)

Aren't shooting brakes just 2 door wagons? 

Then... It's still a Pinto.

basically it’s a term for stations wagons that are much more fancy and expensive but the interesting part of the name apparently came from vehicles used to carry shooting parties. I guess you could call many trucks and suvs a shooting brake then.

Shooting break comes from carriages used by shooting parties to "break" horses from bolting at the sound of gun fire.  A few exist at the Shelburne Museum in Vermont. 

Obviously, opinions and definitions vary wildly. A common rule of thumb is a shooting brake is a 2 door sports coupe converted to a wagon.  Typically, a fairly expensive coupe. Even then, one of the most common of these - the Volvo 1800ES - was called a wagon by Volvo (it helps to remember the 1800 was a fairly expensive car in its day). 

I want to shoot out the two rear windows and replace with a  large single...so yeah shoot em out to break them.

And Pintos are old enough to be cool in their own right specially with a 302 up front.

So, at first I thought this was a bit over-priced at $5250, but reading my latest issue of classic motorsports last night I see a 1974 went for $25,000 (!!! you read that right, 25 grand!!!) at Mecum.

This one is a steal. Low miles, nice shape, cool color and interior. This could be a rare opportunity in automotiveness: a cool car you can drive and sell for more than you paid.
