Vehicle Description
This 1940 Plymouth Deluxe Woody Station Wagon is an outstanding
example and has remained in the same family since new. Advertised
by Plymouth as the "Low Priced Beauty with the Luxury Ride," the
Plymouths almost outsold Fords in 1940. In 1940, the Chrysler
Corporation gave Plymouths the new bodies that Chrysler models
received a year earlier. The wheelbase was lengthened by 3 inches
which, along with a few other engineering changes, increased the
interior space on the car by 10 cubic feet from previous models. We
are told that the roomier interior was the original owner's
deciding factor when he purchased the car new, since he was a
traveling musician and he needed a car that could fit his B3
Hammond Organ and Leslie Speaker. The original owner passed the car
down to his son and later, his grandson. Under the hood on this '40
Plymouth Woody is a 201.3 Cubic Inch Inline 6 Cylinder Engine with
a Carter Single Barrel Carburetor. The inline 6 is hooked up to a 3
speed manual transmission that is shifted using the column mounted
shifter. This '40 Plymouth Woody sits on 4 blackwall bias-ply tires
with color-matched wheels and Plymouth hubcaps which give this
Mopar a classic look. The exterior has been refinished in beautiful
Royal Maroon paint and gorgeous wood paneling. The black vinyl roof
also appears to be in great condition. The exterior also features
some nice accessories such as a driver's side-mounted mirror as
well as front bumper guards. The interior on this 1940 Woody
Station Wagon looks amazing. The 3 rows of burgundy vinyl and cloth
bench seats were all redone. The dash and steering wheel show a bit
of patina but are in their stock configuration. The dash is
equipped with an 100 MPH speedometer, oil pressure gauge, fuel
gauge, temperature gauge, amp gauge, and a push-button AM radio, as
well as a Model-36 deluxe heater under the dash. The wood paneling
throughout the interior, including the door panels, headliner, and
rear tailgate, are stunning and show the level of craftsmanship
that went into the build of this '40 Plymouth. Whether you're
looking for your first collectible Mopar or you are in search of an
ultra-rare woody wagon to add to your growing collection, this 1940
Plymouth Deluxe Woody Station Wagon has a great look and an even
better single-family owned story. Give us a call today!
