I was looking around to see I could find any online...I found them but the pictures are wrong. I don't know if it's an actually pic or just a generic one. The upper mounting is wrong. This is rather interesting... .well after a little looking around I find that Monroe makes a rear shock for the wagons. The part # is 5771 O'reilly Auto parts has them for $22.99 each

Yeah for sure !!!! it seems no one makes them for the wagons anymore,theres tons for the sedans and hatchbacks but nothing for the wagons you are correct the upper mounting point is specific to wagons only.This idiot at autozone tryed to sell me a set and wanted to argue on how his computer said they would fit ALL Pintos...Gotta love the Zone..LOL...NA PA was better they actually knew that the wagons are different but just my luck !!!! they have been discontinued.. ......

I've been a long time buyer from RockAuto.com but recently their shipping charges have gone through the roof - double check your total cost before completing your order it may be more cost effective to drive to your local auto store if they can get them for you.

I bought mine from O'Reilly for my 73 station wagon. As far as I know they are all the same. They are Monroe Sensa-Tracs as well. Good shocks too, they lifted the back of the car back to where it should be and arn't to stiff like my AutoZone something or others are on my sedan, but O'Reilly doesn't sell sedan or hatchback rear shocks. :(
