This 1951 Mercury Woody Wagon comes from the California seller's collection and underwent a restoration in 2015. Power is provided by a 239ci V8 paired with a column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission, and the car is finished in black with Bird’s Eye Maple wood grain paneling over a professionally reupholstered red leather interior. This Woody is offered with its original 1951 California black plates and a clean Montana title in the seller’s name.
At the time of the restoration in 2015, the body was repainted in black, and the factory-correct Bird’s Eye Maple wood grain paneling was refinished, both to a high degree of detail per the seller. Exterior features include chrome bumpers, proper brightwork, dropdown tailgate with Continental kit, a driver-side mirror, and dual exhaust.
Factory 15” steel wheels with chrome covers, trim rings, and Mercury center caps are wrapped in wide-whitewall tires.
Interior trim consists of reupholstered red leather, newer red cloth headliner, a metal dash with woodgrain, and chrome accents, and black carpet with red piping. The push-button radio has been customized to allow for smartphone or music device plug-in and connectivity.
Instrumentation includes a 110-mph speedometer and gauges for oil pressure, fuel level, coolant temperature, and voltage. An aftermarket temperature gauge is installed below the dash because the factory unit is not operational. The 5-digit odometer reads approximately 18k miles, 800 of which have been added by the seller over his two-year ownership. True mileage is not known.
The 239ci V8 has been mechanically refurbished and painted green as part of the restoration effort. Upgrades include a modern core radiator with an electric fan and a conversion to a 12-volt electrical system. Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a 3-speed manual transmission.
A never-installed passenger-side mirror will go with the car.
