Brooklin 1949 DeSoto Woody—one of my favorites. Pictures speak for themselves

Great 'angled' comparison shots again! 😎 

Who made the model?

That's a Brooklin, Ed. 

It’s a Brooklin. Thanks, Ed, I added that to the topic title.

Wonderful model and an excellent comparison. It's also one of my favorite models.

I really like this one as well.  I changed it to blackwall tires and much prefer the look.

Longtime favorite in my collection.

Great model of a really nice car but Brooklin exaggerated the front grill somewhat. I still want it. Thanks for this post David.

same here, Jack:

DeSoto with blackwalls...and a grin

I wonder how mine wound up with white walls on white wheels?  I like it anyhow.

I too really like this model. Here's my collection of it. I repainted one in Glade Green. I also turned one into a '49 Chrysler in Ocean Blue.

And there is also a light green 1949 Dodge woody.

Where did you get the front clip to create a Chrysler version?   Maybe a NEO black sedan?   I keep hoping NEO will relaunch their '49 Chrysler New Yorker sedan in blue as was shown a while back but not produced....yet.    And maybe some day we'll see the all steel four door wagon that replaced these woodies from Dodge,  Desoto, and Chrysler?   Something like this one.

Very nice DeSoto wagons ! What an excellent-looking car.
