With yesterday's '49 Olds "88" Coupe on my mind, and it being parked next to DANBURY MINT'S outstanding Black Woody Wagon, I had to feature the Wagon this morning.
I've not normally been a Wagon fan of real cars, but the Diecast 1:24's from the mints have all been absolute knockouts and this OLDSMOBILE is no exception. WOW! It's a beauty!
Some REAL '49 OLDSMOBILE WOODY WAGON Facts:
There were two series, the 6-cylinder "76" Deluxe Station Wagon that weighed 3,680 pounds and sold for for hefty $2,895 of which 1,545 were produced. And there was an "88" with an 8-cylinder engine of which 1,355 were produced.
Oh and that's me and my princess on the bench next to the car.

Who could possibly not like this wagon especially with the endorsement of the dwarfs and mice?
