Rick Mack

Rick Mack has been involved in Ford and Mercury woodies since 1962, with the exception of a ten year hiatus from ‘74 to ‘84 while living in Hawaii. In 1991 he set up his operation in Lakewood, Washington to do ‘in shop’ rebuilds of woodies, and, a few years later, switched over to building wood sets for 1949-1951 Ford and Mercury wagons. Rick has built over one hundred complete new wood sets for these cars over the past dozen years, and has built a great many individual parts for these models as well.
