Hot Wheels Cars of the Decades 40s '49 Merc

The 1949 Mercury is one of the most iconic and influential cars in American custom culture — the quintessential lead sled that became the canvas of choice for the pioneering customizers of the late 1940s and 1950s. With its low, slab-sided body, smooth flowing lines, and naturally elegant proportions, the '49 Merc was practically born to be customized, and in the hands of legends like Sam Barris and others, it became the defining symbol of the early American custom car movement. Chopped, channeled, and nosed, the '49 Merc custom is an enduring icon that continues to inspire builders and collectors to this day. The Hot Wheels Cars of the Decades 40s series honors this legendary machine with premium detailing and a collector-grade finish.

An absolute icon of American custom car culture and an essential piece for any serious collection — the Cars of the Decades '49 Merc is a landmark casting that represents the birth of the American custom movement.
