I believe some coachbuilders (like Crayford) were making these type conversions

 Well, it's strange anyway...This one seems based on a W123?

I have found they call it Mercedes Estate.

 This one's based on W114/115. The guys at Crayford even converted LWB-version into wagons until MB placed a ban on that (document in English language at the bottom of the page)

I wonder where they sourced the tailgate from? Looks like it belongs to a Consul Estate.

As far as I know it was only one, the so called "Dachshund".

Correct! Crayford Auto Developement Ltd. used Ford components of the Granada/ Consul series to built these bodies.

 This is a 1973 or earlier 250 automatic estate, registered SLC 5 and still alive a couple of years ago although plate not apparently current on DVLA and other check sites. Same car as /vehicle_145789-Mercedes-Benz-250-Estate-W114-1969.html - see table in http://www.roststopp.de/strichacht/crayford.htm .
