Hell yeah finally someone got it =) congratulations man nobody got the Nash Healy name that tune either if you wanna give that one go it’s a little little bit harder
A well to do family got such a blessing. Town & Country was such a hallmark car for Chrysler. 1949 was another prime year for the automaker. Pricey it was, the cost of a fine car is just not cheap. FDR would have delighted in owning a T&C motorcar.
Thanks for an interesting show ! Both the 1948 and the 1949 Town and Country Chryslers are impressive , quality-built cars - . The '48s , to my eye , look better in reality than they do in pictures ; the long hood with that amazing 'Harmonica' grill - an astonishing piece of casting - and the Woodwork is incredible ! The '49s have really beautiful side trim brightwork and the Trunk area is interesting if slightly impractical , The old Chrysler Straight Eight was smooth , torquey and quite powerful for its day - until Cadillac's new short stroke OHV V8 came on the scene instantly upstaging all of the older engine designs - with its lively160 hp , available with the superior Hydramatic Transmission in a slightly lighter , more modern and very good looking package . The beautiful woodwork of the Chryslers did nothing for Lightness , while the Semi- Auto transmissions provided a rather leisurely upshift . Once these heavy Beauties got rolling however , they could stay with most cars on the road at that time . They were respected for their reliability and easy maintenance ( of the mechanicals ! the woodwork was another matter ..). Fuel consumption was pretty average for an Inline Eight , and in addition , gas was cheap !
46 Ford 49 Chrysler T&C These were quite unique in their day. Nowadays rare as hens teeth. One thing that did surprise me is for such a large car how tiny the trunk was. Thanks Jay for posting this one.
What a beautiful example. I don't recall ever seeing a black one, Thank you for featuring it, Jay. And I'll take the Mercury Sportsman and the '48 Town and Country.
Great choices =) I miss my opportunity of doing at town and country earlier this year and I saw this one and I never saw a 49 in person so I definitely wanted to do it.
It looks to me like the rear trunk panel would fold down like a tailgate. It'd be a helluva job getting the spare tyre out if it didn't. On the 49 frontal styling, it's less strange than the 48, but it's not distinctive and looks quite like a Cadillac. Cheers.
It did not look like it opened like a tailgate I looked at other pictures as well and I can’t determine if it 100% doesn’t open but it does not look like it does.. so yeah getting a spare tire out of the back will be very cumbersome also have to lift stuff up over the rear to get it inside almost like putting it in the back of a pick up truck without a tailgate but this course it’s a little bit lower.. Totally agree it does sort of look like a Cadillac glad you enjoy this episode
Another good show Jay. As far as would I rather it would have to be the 49 Chrysler. I find the looks are just like one a child hood friend sold me for $500 in the late 70s.
First choice the 46 Mercury Sportsman second the 48 Chevrolet aerosedan plus the blue GMC panel in the background. The trunk detail on the T&C is interesting, never seen inside the trunk on one of those. Thanks for another great car episode.
Glad you dig this episode I’m sorry I didn’t do the panel truck I did a 59 Rambler wagon that’s coming up one day today’s engine episode is the third generation AMC V8 just putting that together now =)
I think these are really nice, quality built and interesting looking automobiles. Iove the interior and the gauges and dash design! Looking at these cars always makes me think more of country, rather than town, like I always imagine just taking long, scenic drives or trips, through probably ideally, picturesque New England states or something like that. I'd definitely pick this one in both scenarios!😎
It's the Chrysler T&C for both scenarios for WYR. Largely because it was an all-new design whereas all the others were carryovers from the pre-Pearl Harbor era. There were quite a few who weren't too crazy about the '48 Chrysler. I have to agree about it being an acquired taste. I was never crazy about its grille. So the '49 was an improvement.
Hi Jay!: The CLASSIC Chrysler Town and Country!! SO NEAT! The 1949 interior is quite nice! As far as the T&C body style goes, though, I like the 1948 because of the additional wood and the more conventional trunk opening. The 1949 Chrysler, though, was a much better looking car overall than the 1948. Like Ford, they were ready finally for a true postwar design. WYR#1 1949 T&C (with honorable mention to the 1946 Ford Sportsman). #2 1948 T&C. . .why? Well WAY before my time my Grandmother actually owned one for a short time! It was green like the examples you show in the side an rear view comparison of '48 and '49. It was one of those deals where my Aunt and her husband bought the thing (probably used as they didn't have THAT much money!) pretty soon they found out they couldn't make the payments. So Grandma took over the payments, until she was able to unload the car (not very practical during Indiana winters!). Still, it was a story my Mom told me about for many years!
If I could have any car from the immediate postwar era (1946-1950) it would be a Town and Country. I love the styling on those cars. I am partial to the 48, I liked the use of wood on the sides. As you say, it is an acquired taste. The 0 - 60 time of 23 seconds along with gas milage of 11 mpg shows how far automotive technology has come in the past 70 years.
MGM made a Frank Sinatra/Gene Kelly film, " *Anchors Aweigh* " that was released in 1945. In the film, one of the characters, Bertram Kraler (Grady Sutton) drives a *2-door Chrysler ("woodie") convertible* to escort his date, Susan Abbott (Kathryn Grayson) to a rather high-brow musical event (Concert? Opera?). The film also stars José Iturbi as Himself and the animated characters Tom and Jerry. The songs and the dance numbers are wonderful! Chrysler must have been doing a product placement project with MGM; since the Chrysler Town and County convertible (with wood panels) is not listed until the 1946 year's models I haven't seen the movie in awhile; however, there are probably other Chrysler vehicles used in the film. Those 1949 Chrysler, town and country cars are gorgeous! Nice video. 👍Thank you for sharing 😊
Lol…the 48 front is definitely an acquired taste (and that’s being kind). Not a bad buy for the money. Btw…that hood must make it feel like you are steering an ocean going cargo ship 😅. I’ll take the Town and Country in both scenarios.
Chevy than Mercury.. But I do love the 49 Dash 👍😉 art deco treatment is fantastic 👏👏👏 Chrysler was big as a Whale 🐳 😂 Great Episode Happy Motoring ✌️🤠🍻
Six cylinder engine was NOT available in New Yorker, neither was a three speed manual transmission. New Yorker and Imperial came standard equipped with a straight eight and Fluid Drive. There should also be Dinoc woodgrain decals, on the steel panels, between the wood trim. Nash also offered a wood trimmed car from 46 through 48,the Suburban. The wood trim on Chevrolet was an after market accessory, not factory installed.
Chrysler was using the Presto-Metic semi-automatic transmission by '49. Still had the fluid clutch, but added a torque converter and under drive that gave it a range of four forward gears. You'd let off and reapply the gas pedal to activate the change, but switching between high and low still required shifting.
Wow,if the eight is that slow,the six must take an hour to hit 60. I think New Yorkers and Imperials had the eight. Spooky long stroke probably couldn't run much above 3000 RPM.
I agree with you Jay that the 49 was a much better design over the 48. I think the boxer George Foreman once owned a 48 Town and Country rag top. Not really a fan of these but I do like the looks of the 46 Merc. The Fleetline had some nice lines but my fav is the 49 and 50's.
A buddy of mine in high school had a '48, but it wasn't a woody- I remember totally shot maroon paint, and the fact that we could put a go-cart on the trunk, although the trunk couldn't close that way.
I just don’t have the words to describe engineering and work in these old cars . Yes i know new cars are safer , more power ,,,,,,, but inside &out , to me , they look the same as when i get dippers for my grand kids . 5 different brands but they all seen to collect the shit well anyway lol . I may only drive for another 20 , 25 years if i’m lucky . I will own and drive older cars until the end ! Well done Jay :)
Glad you dig this episode =) I was responding to a guy who thinks a Pontiac solstice is one of the sexiest cars from 2006.. and I was like it’s OK if you like plastic fantastic, idk people from now will never know what A quality vehicle feels like.. 30s packard even 116 basement model is a Quality car I don’t know how else to really describe it those cars are just amazing everything has a weighted feel to it and it just feels right it doesn’t feel like you’re gonna put your hand through at the moment you touch it..
I've always wanted to restore a "woody" of some vintage, to combine 2 of my hobbies. WYR: 1949 T&C, 1948 T&C (Chevy a very close 2nd). I agree, the front end of the 49 is better looking, but the rest of the 48 wins to my eye (a big part of that is more wood tbh). Thank you as always ~ Chuck
That’s a great guess but it’s not that song or band and I totally agree the fleetline aero sedan is truly something i’m a sucker for a good great 40 GM Fastback design they did not make a bad looking car with the fast back look
This the last real Town and Country and was better looking and its predecessors , big improvement over the '48 IMHO, and the painted body panels really set off the wood. Is it painted Navy or Black? BTW, the tail lamps on the '49 & '50 T&Cs are irreplaceable, according to an owner I met at Barrett-Jackson once...much like the 1958 & 59 Edsel wagon's. Like the '49-50 dashboard better. WYR #1 & #2 Chrysler.
Awesome information great choices I didn’t know about the tail light situation I think the car was black but I can totally see how you can see navy blue
These were unbelievable cars with craftsmanship in mind. Think about it ....there's 100 times more design and tooling devoted to the "grill" than the whole exterior of a Tesla!!! BTW.... I'd take the Ford in the first offering and the Chevy in the second.... just like the simpler layouts
I definitely like the 49 over the 48... although the wood framed steel doors do look a bit odd. I never cared much for "woodies" anyway. I suppose I would rather have the 49 Chrysler over either of the Ford cars, but I'd definitely take the 48 Chevy over all of the other choices. And... I have no idea what the song is.
I had to make this songs harder because people are using software but now I made them too hard in the software I can’t even get them which I think is hilarious there are three episodes now where people can’t name the tune this one was a pretty easy one I thought but it’s 1971 song
@@What.its.like. Yeah... my problem is that I only listen to rock and roll, hard rock, heavy metal... I don't really know much of what would be considered "pop" songs, except the few times over the years where those genres were popular.
@@What.its.like. Well... ZZ Top's First Album was from '71, but it's not them... Led Zeppelin's 4th album came out that year, but it doesn't sound like any of their songs. Sabbath released their third album in '71, but it certainly isn't them... The Beatles were broken up at that point, but I think that was the year Let It Be was released... doesn't sound like The Who, unless it's from the Tommy musical... It's not Deep Purple... Not CCR... The only thing I can think of that would have what sounds like violins and could be considered "rock" is maybe John Denver, but I don't know very many of his songs.
on the first question i would prefer the 1946 Mercury based on looks.The look of the late 1940's Chrysler seems out of place and odd to me. great video.
Chrysler used those flip flop window cranks for a long time - they were a touted as a safety feature; the protruding know would not jab you. Door handles which cureved inward to almost meet the door card also - supposed would not catch on clothing for accidental opening. They also stuck with that bright (and rather incongruous) red umbrella handbrake for a long time as well, but didn't offer a justification for that one. For me, a lot of the T&C magic went away when the ditched the wood panels and then even the di-noc in favor of paint. Not nearly as special. WYR: 1) Mercury Sportsman - because I think there are TWO left, period 2) 48 T&C
not the chevy. i would take the 1949 Chrysler for sure, i would take the 1948 Chrysler over the chevy any day. but if was the 1948 ford that would be a harder call.

They made 7 hardtop Town and Countrys in 1946, beating Buick to the punch, though numbers that low can't really be considered a production model.
I think other cars of the era could do much much better as to both acceleration and fuel mileage.
For me, in that timespan, a 1947 Hudson commodore, maroon, or a 1947 Oldsmobile 2 door fastback, automatic, and yes, maroon.

They also stuck with that bright (and rather incongruous) red umbrella handbrake for a long time as well, but didn't offer a justification for that one. For me, a lot of the T&C magic went away when the ditched the wood panels and then even the di-noc in favor of paint. Not nearly as special. WYR: 1) Mercury Sportsman - because I think there are TWO left, period 2) 48 T&C
