Vehicle Description
Built from scratch by Hercules Motor Car Company. Building Woodies
is their expertise, because that's all they build! Visit their site
to learn more. They advertise "body kits starting at $32,500". We
are offering a complete, running finished car for only $43,998.
This was one of the first cars they built, there were 2 almost
identical. The other one sold for $80,000. There are only 9,400
miles since built. That says it can certainly be driven and
enjoyed.
EXTERIOR: The fit of the wood body is very impressive. Very tight
gaps, the doors close solid and dont rattle. They used piano hinge
from top to bottom on the doors. Looks like oak boards with birch
inserts. In back it has a two part tailgate door. The glass is all
tinted. The door windows can be slid out the top. The cowl, hood,
running boards and aprons are metal, fenders are glass. The hood is
3 pieces, can be used with the sides removed. The paint overall
shows really well. Its glossy and even. You may find some minor
nicks or touch ups. The roof is padded and upholstered in a durable
sail fast vinyl, mint condition. Some nice vintage features include
the big Ford headlights, the original style stainless steel
bumpers, step plates and door handles. It gets the hot rod look
from the stance and staggered size tires on aluminum wheels.

bench in back. Buckets are adjustable. Seat belts for everyone.
Custom cut carpet with contrasting sewn edges and matching mats.
