Lot #740 - This Deluxe Woody Station Wagon has always been a West Coast car that was carefully looked after and never completely restored. Amazingly, it retains most of its original wood from Fords Iron Mountain, still in beautiful shape today. The floors are original and rock-solid, with no repairs ever performed. All of the sheet metal is original, rust-free and very straight. The wagon was professionally repainted once in the original color of Mandarin Maroon. The Flathead V8 and transmission were professionally rebuilt and perform outstandingly. The rebuilt 2-speed Columbia rear end makes high speed cruising possible. All of the hydraulic brakes were gone through, and the complete wiring harness was replaced with correct cloth-wrapped wiring and looms. This Woody has correct-grain leather seats, original garnish moldings, correct mats, and even retains most of its original date-coded glass. The front and rear leaf springs were upgraded with units from Pete and Jakes for a better ride and slightly lowered stance. Tube shocks were also fitted to further improve the ride. It rides on correct 16" smoothie rims wrapped in Firestone whitewalls. The previous owner lovingly cared for this car the last 20 years. A very fine example.
