I hope I'm not the only one who noticed that woody in the back.Looks like a Merc,should be A LOT cheaper then any modsquad version you find out there.

I believe it does but as it stands now it will have the Caddy engine from the 49 Mercury custom kit.

Saw that...no biggie, the AMT '49 Merc is easy enough to source an engine from.The Woody will have the Caddy engine for all those who were wondering.

I really hope the 49 Merc will come with a separate, all stock coupe body... As much as I like woodies for being something different, I cannot see myself painting all that wood and making it look realistic.

Here are the pics Steve Goldman took of the '49 Mercury Woodie:
Looks like a modified reissue of the Custom Merc ..... no stock engine or trans. The rest looks all Stock

Some '49 Mercury Woodie-specific posts were moved when this topic was created, so the timestamp of each posts ranks them, even after they've been moved. Your post was the oldest, so it's now the first in this topic.

I will have to get one of these, painting all the wood is going to be tricky job, but worth having a go at it ...
