In another post, the Galen highlighted DMs wonderful 1949 Mercury in black. Another version was added to the post with a 2nd LE release in two-tone green. That was followed up with the reissue of the standard release in Haiti Beige & Lima Tan.

I have both this and the two tone green one. When DM did these two I couldn't wait to receive them.

John, I do not remember this color combo on the Merc.  I will have to go back and look through the old catalogs.  Thanks for the pictures.

Great pics John.  I have this one, also the two-tone green version and the original black one as well.  Oh, and the woody wagon too.  DM did a nice job on them.
