Vehicle Description
This no-expense spared custom 1951 Ford Country Squire Woody is
powered by a 351ci V8 engine paired to a Bowler 4R70W 4-speed
automatic transmission with a Ford 9-inch rear end. The Ford
Windsor V8 has been upgraded with a Holley Sniper fuel-injection
system, March Performance billet aluminum serpentine pulley and a
Summit Racing air cleaner. This custom Woody sits on a
powder-coated black Art Morrison frame and features a 4-link
suspension, Strange axles and JRI coilovers. This custom rides on
Z-rated 16-inch custom wide whitewall tires wrapped around a set of
red powdered wheels with new hubcaps. Braking power is provided by
a set of Wilwood disc brakes, and the Windsor V8 is fed by a new
stainless fuel tank. The exterior paint is finished in Dark Green
Metallic from a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS. The bodywork was
completed by Midwest Rod & Custom of Lake Park, MN. The wood is
maple and mahogany and is stained and varnished with Spar varnish.
The wood came in a raw state and was sanded and fitted by Rick Mack
of Fife, WA. The interior is tan, brown and green and the carpet is
a Daytona Weave. The seats, door panels and headliner are all done
in a contrasting tan and brown leather with a touch of vinyl. The
work was performed by Huston Pierce of Pierce'N Customs of Pelican
Rapids, MN. Featuring power steering and power brakes, the Woody's
stainless trim has been strategically inserted into the door panels
to complement the stainless dash. The original gauges are in the
cluster, but the speedometer reads high. Both the fuel gauge and
volts gauges work. The steering wheel is hand-painted. The '51
Woody has a Lokar shifter on the floor. The stereo is mounted in
the dash and has a subwoofer. The Woody has been featured in
numerous magazines, including as the cover car on the January 2019
issue of National Woodie Times as well as in the November and
December 2018 issues as a build story. Additionally, the Woody was
autographed by the 2018 Miss America and Miss North Dakota.
