Description
1936 Ford Woody
As a variant of body-on-frame construction, the woodie originated from the early (pre mid-1930s) practice of manufacturing the passenger compartment portion of a vehicle in hardwood. Woodies were popular in the United States and were produced as variants of sedans and convertibles as well as station wagons, from basic to luxury. They were typically manufactured as third-party conversions of regular vehicles some by large, reputable coach-building firms and others by local carpenters and craftsmen for individual customers. They could be austere vehicles, with side curtains in lieu of roll-up windows (the 1932 Ford) and sold in limited numbers (Ford sold 1654 woodie wagons). Eventually, bodies constructed entirely in steel supplanted wood construction for reasons of strength, cost, and durability
