Mercury by a nose for me. These two are both very well done for their era. I particularly like the Buick limited version done in maroon.

One of my favourite early Brooklins is the metallic grey 1949 Buick Roadmaster.

I like both! I'll have to weave around and declare a tie.............. even though the Buick is a Roadmaster and therefore of a slightly higher range. (Count the portholes.)

Agree, David, they're not quite equivalent, but they do look good parked next to each other in my display case.
