built with genuine maple and mahogany bodywork, it represents the
end of an era when automotive bodies were still shaped as much by
skilled woodworkers as by metal craftsmen. The year 1948 was the
last year of classic prewar styling, and 8,912 vehicles were
produced for the model year. This Woody underwent a comprehensive
3.5 year restoration that included removing the original wood
framework, sanding, bleaching, toning, and varnishing. Additional
mechanical restoration work included replacing wiring, rebuilding
the braking system, installing new shocks and exhaust system,
replacing the fuel tank, and installing an electric fuel pump. The
current owner acquired this Woody in January of 2018 and it has
been a favorite collection piece to enjoy on cruises around town
and as a holiday centerpiece. This Woody Wagon is a great fit for a
