I like the plain, simple, purposeful look of the Dodge. It looks like what it is - a utility vehicle.

That Merc is very nice, the other two not bad.

Mercury, Dodge, Pontiac.  Take the wood grain off please looks tacky to me.  "Things that are tacky are cheap, flashy, garish, gaudy, loud, tawdry, or trashy." Well not that bad.

I don't know, but I believe I like the Dodge then the Mercury and then the Pontiac.

Contrary to the outrageous comments Bruce made about my beloved woodies (tin type included) I love all these cars...even the naked Dodge.  Lol.

My pick is the Mercury by a pug nose over Pontiac and the Dodge third.......it just seems to be missing something....not sure what.  Wink

Seriously though....I wish all of these wagons eventually get done in 1:43.

Mercury. I like the wood treatment and the front.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I seriously would have loved all three of these old wagons in 1:24 scale.  As for my favorite, it's the MERCURY by a landside.  The other two are boxy looking and very dated styling by '52.

Mercury is my choice for #1. The Pontiac and the Dodge are so different that I can't choose between them.

You nailed it.  The Plymouth looks like nothing more than the hauler a station likely was originally intended to be.  Smile

Mercury followed by Dodge and last place, for my tastes, the Pontiac.

I have to go with the Mercury. A friend of my father had this wagon and I remember lots of fun trips. It certainly does not look as utilitarian as the other two.

For me life is too short to drive boring cars. I'll take the tackey Mercury and Pontiac which are tied for first. The Dodge is a distance 3rd. Tackey generates far more interest and excitement than dull and boring.  Some are happy with lackluster and invisible vehicles. Whatever floats one's boat.
