1:18-Scale 1949 Mercury Eight 75th Anniversary Diecast Car

Post World War II, the demand for new cars was unprecedented as buyers sought out vehicles with more style and performance than ever before. Ford responded by delivering its newly designed 1949 Mercury Eight Coupe. Lower, heavier, and sporting now-iconic pontoon fender stylings and a big 648-cubic cm flathead V8 engine, this powerful and imposing ride not only broke sales records for Ford, but also had broad appeal to many buyers, especially hot rod enthusiasts. And now, with this 1949 Eight Coupe diecast car, you can celebrate 75 years of this legendary ride and one of the most pivotal models in Ford history.
