Finished in Tampico Red and complemented by original wood paneling and a Tobacco leather interior, this nine passenger Woody is as cool as it gets! The exterior paint work is fresh and highly polished, and blends well against the original wood work throughout. All britework is correct and in exceptional condition following suit. Inward the new brown leather bench seating keeps passengers comfortable while the AM radio keeps them entertained. The faux wood dash keeps in line with the paneling throughout and the original headliner is noted as well.
The 49 Mercury is powered by the 255 L-Head V8 which produces 110 horsepower and 200 pounds of torque. A column shifted, Borg Warner 3 speed transmission selects gears in conjunction with the Touch-O-Matic overdrive system all recently rebuilt. The overdrive, is operated by a cable to left of the steering wheel and improves efficiency and drops RPMs while increasing the speed range. Load up the entire family for ice cream or hit the local show, either way you'll be the envy of the town!
