NEW TO WAGHOON · OCTOBER 19, 2026

1946 Mercury Super Deluxe Woodie

The attraction is the seller’s account of long ownership and retained original wood, body panels and glass—not a speculative rarity score. The gray body and timber sides give it a very different presence from a modern estate.

Source reviewed October 19, 2026. “New” means new to WAGHOON, not newly listed by the seller. This is a dated advertisement observation, not seller-confirmed availability or an independent vehicle inspection.

WeBe Autos advertises this Mercury for $39,995 on behalf of an owner in Florida. The listing describes ownership dating to 1971, a rebuilt flathead V8, manual transmission, refreshed brakes and LeBaron Bonney interior and roof work. It also says roughly 200 miles have been covered on the rebuilt engine. That figure is not the car’s lifetime mileage.

Details to clarify

  • Originality, long ownership and restoration details are seller claims awaiting documentation.
  • The listed 88,835 reading and approximately 200 miles on the rebuilt engine describe different things.
  • WeBe’s business address is not the car’s location; the listing places the vehicle in Fort Myers Beach.

Inspection priorities

Questions suggested by this advertised configuration—not diagnoses or claims that a problem is present.

Timber structure

Inspect joints, lower framing, door fit, roof seams and hidden moisture damage with a wood-bodied-car specialist.

Engine and brake work

Request dated invoices and clarify when the engine was rebuilt. Inspect the cooling, fuel, brake and original-style six-volt electrical systems.

Provenance

Match 991A206736 to the vehicle and title, and ask for records supporting the ownership and original-material claims.

Before contacting the seller

Confirm the exact car remains available, obtain an itemized quote and current photographs, and request its title and service records. Arrange an independent inspection before committing. WAGHOON does not sell, reserve or inspect vehicles.
