This showroom new all-steel four-door Custom Woody (inspired by a
1934 Ford Station Wagon) was designed by Super Rides by Jordan.
This classic four-door Woody body, hand built by Cecil Taylor at
the Hercules Motor Car Company in Tampa, Florida, was mounted on a
TCI chassis. The Woody is powered by an aluminum block Ford 427
bored and stroked to 486 cubic inches, generating more than 500 HP
and 575 foot-pounds of torque. All the wood finish and details were
completed by Ron Heiden of Heiden Woodworking in Encinitas,
California. Ron's finishing work includes ribbon grain mahogany
panels inside and out, as well as hardwood maple, birch, and
brasswood roof slats. Ron also added mahogany and maple to the
Budnik steering wheel and the handle of the floor-mounted
gearshift. The custom surfboard roof rack was constructed of maple
and walnut and is finished to complement the wood on the body. We
think this looks absolutely perfect!! This Woody was painted a
spectacular PPG Vibrance "Hellfire" color by Best of Show in
Escondido, California. The car's undercarriage is beautifully
detailed with stainless steel and chrome throughout. In the
sunlight, the spectacular paint on the fenders and hood displays a
wide spectrum of deep candy apple colors as the radius of the
fenders and hood move from shadow to light. The classic interior,
which includes leather seats front and rear and wool carpeting, was
completed by the award-winning Armando"s Custom Interiors. The
interior includes an original 1934 Ford dashboard that has been
modified to accept beautiful and functional Classic Instrument
gauges. The rear gate swings down to reveal a custom mahogany
interior with chrome luggage strips and a panel that hides the gas
tank filler cap. In addition to the dashboard and rear gate design,
Super Rides by Jordan created the innovative and beautiful hood
superstructure, engine compartment firewall, custom tanks, engine
valve covers, and other custom details. The vehicle's aluminum Ford
486ci engine includes Edelbrock heads, a Crane roller cam, and an
Imagine fuel injection system. In addition to generating more than
500hp and being lightening quick, this vehicle can cruise at more
than 70 mph with ease. The engine was built by Gregg Scott Racing
Engines in El Cajon, California. The transmission is a hearty Chevy
4L80-E. The suspension components were built by Kugel Components of
La Habra, California, which include stainless steel and polished
chrome IFS, and a 9-inch Ford IRS rear end. The brakes have 13-inch
drilled and slotted rotors. The limited slip differential carries a
3:08 final gear ration that allows for low-RPM highway cruising.
The custom Budnik wheels are 17x7 in the front and 18x8 in the
rear. This award winning Ford was one of the top hot rod Woodys in
California, combining stunning looks with lightning quickness. It
won "The Best Hot Rod Woody" award in the 2007 Wavecrest Show, and
the 2007/2008 Doheny Wood Show Awards. The millage on this vehicle
is only from driving to and from shows. It is truly in amazing
condition and is ready to be enjoyed. However, we cannot recommend
the surf boards actually be used for surfing!!! The original cost
to build this vehicle was north of $150,000. For more information
