It's a chopped wagon. There is a EF or EL Xr 6/8 dual cab ute getting around Bendigo that I have seen, and also a wagon that has been turned into a panel van.
There are a few customs out there. Pretty cool too. Cheers ToranaGuy

I'd re title it- "AU wagon/dual cab ute, with XR front."

Here are the pics of the EF Dual Cab Ute. It was for sale on Ebay and I kept the pics.
  I quite like it, and would consider this mod for a future wagon. Cheers BenJ

if the back of that au looked like this one with suicide rear doors also that would be awesome.

I have seen one a few years back, it was done right imo, they had got the wagaon, cut the rear section of or heavily cut it back, put the rear cab section on to the wagon cab, and instead of cutting shaping the rear, they cut the sides and rear semi boxed it to look ute like.

i think you either need to go max custom which is very hard to pull off, or you need to retain some of the standard looks/panels. i think that r5 looks good because it still looks factory. the black xr looks good for the same reason. the early e series looks a bit chopped up at some angles.
the amusing thing i noticed about that ford R5 ute was it had almost b-series interior. Attachment: AU2_R5_4WDute_int2.jpg [ 68.97 KiB | Viewed 259 times ] Attachment: AU2_R5_4WDute1.jpg [ 61.6 KiB | Viewed 296 times ] nice concept, now lets get the grinders and gas axe out ! lol
