Nine Woodies

Here are a few wood body rides that you don’t see every day. Starting in the upper left is a 1937 Packard with a Custom Made body, built in 1940. In the middle is a 1937 Dodge that isn’t even listed as being produced. Top right we see a 1939 International Harvester Pickup that was nicely converted by the factory. Middle left features a 1940 Dodge. In the middle is a 1940 Oldsmobile that came with a six or straight 8. On the right, how about the snappy 1940 Pontiac loaded with chrome. Bottom left features the newly restyled 1942 Pontiac. In the middle is a hard-to-find 1942 Ford Super Deluxe waiting for a Surf Board. Last is a George Barris modified 1949 Ford done for Quinn Publishing, publishers of Hop-Up, Motor Life and Rod & Custom. ©AHRF/David Fetherston Collection (FEA_869)
