Golly, that car is beautiful! The interior, exterior, the whole car - is so well done! WYR: 1947 Ford Woody, 1947 Pontiac. Name that tune: Beach Boys Surf City
These are some of my all-time favorite autos, snd this is a gorgeous example!! Love that supreme door shut sound! I do like the Ford alot , but would be happy with this as well, so thr Ford on the first, this in the second, would be the dream!
I have well above average woodworking skills and remade a lot of the wood for Woody This was a super challenge and tweaked the parts or years to get the car working right.
Beautiful car Jay and your right such craftsmanship and great basic mechanical parts will keep this wagon going forever if properly cared for. In the first WYR I’ll take the Plymouth due to the design and that wonderful dashboard, can’t even imagine what Chrysler did for the top of the line town and country and for the second WYR I’ll take the Pontiac due to the great design those fenders are beautiful and hopefully it’s a straight 8 , thanks Jay keep up the good work you’ve came a long way buddy and I’m happy for you and we got to enjoy your great videos 👍
Thank you happy you dig this channel =) I just went to classic auto Mall yesterday and shot some new stuff. I still have some stuff from Gilmore. The best car that’s coming in my opinion is the 62 Chrysler 300 that is a very awesome car not entirely sure when that’s going to come
A video that I had to watch because when I was just a tot in the early 1960's my family lived in Falls Church, Virginia and rented a one story home for a couple of years. The owners would frequently drop by and the wife had a 1953 Plymouth whilst the husband had a 1946-'48 Plymouth. My parents had a 1949 dark green four-door Plymouth. I really liked the early post war Plymouth, which was offered to the public up until March of 1949 and still sold well. However, for WYR I will go with the Ford Woody and the Pontiac Woody, but the Plymouth Woody comes in a close second on both scenarios. A truly great looking wagon, and I'm glad that I watched the video all the way through!
That car brought back soooo many memories. My favorite uncle had a 4 door sedan of that type and had it well into the 50’s . EverySunday he would take me for a malted and pretzel when he went for the paper . As there were no seatbelts and I was small I stood up next to him as he drove with my arm around his shoulder . I remember the look of the dash vividly .
What a beauty! I can't imagine 1) How anyone would think having wood be between you and another car slamming into you was a good idea and 2) the amount of wormanship in said wood. Can you imagine how much that kind of artistry would cost now days? Gorgeous, gorgeous car! WYR: 1) Ford 2) Plymouth
Great choices they made these out of wood, because steel shortages from the war. They wanted to make wagons, but they didn’t have enough steel to make wagons so they built them out of wood. I might do the history lesson on the Woody wagon that will be totally different than how Earl covered it.
What a beauty! I recall Dad’s ‘50 Plymouth wagon as very utilitarian, but this car wouldn’t be out of place at the yacht club, sort of a smaller Chrysler Town & Country.👍
Of course, of we stretch our definition of station wagon, we’d have to count the Chevrolet Suburban Carryall, introduced in 1935. And the Europeans had some interesting all steel cars along these lines in the 1930’s.
Surprised you didn't mention the "ship" emblem that Plymouth used for years! The ship emblem harkened back to the Mayflower, since the car was named Plymouth, as in Plymouth Rock. I would love to have a hubcap with that Mayflower emblem on it! Look at the quality of those interior materials, even in a lowly Plymouth!!! WYR! 1. Plymouth, of course! 2. Ohhh, that Poncho sure is pretty!
That woody is unbelievable! The woodwork looks brand new! Sweet👌 Honestly, I'd take any of them, though the Pontiac was a surprise; I'm sure I've never seen one of those. Pontiac, Plymouth & Ford in that order.
Surf City by Jan and Dean The woodies all look so similar they must be looking over each others shoulders. WYR Ford WYR Willis Wash ,wax and Pledge the car every Sunday. Thx Jay ,great as always.
This is an incredible beautiful Plymouth Woodie .That Pontiac also captured my attention. I didn't know they made them.I love you to feather one sometimes thank you
"Painted to look like whitewalls" is an understatement -- they fooled me just the same, even *nearly 80 years after this car was assembled.* Had you not mentioned it, I wouldn't have known! Good job, to the designers and painters at Plymouth in the 1940's, I guess! I've always wanted a Woody, but wood can be difficult to preserve in damp climates like the Pacific Northwest. I just realized, I suppose taking a woody to the beach to go surfing wouldn't be a great idea, in regard to preservation . . . I think I'd rather have a Willys Wagon, because if I get a true woody, I think it should be a convertible, to encourage me to keep it inside during questionable weather 😉 Great video Jay!
I was really impressed by the wheels and I didn’t notice it until editing the video I was like those are steel almost like rings but not beauty rings I never saw anything like it. That was the last car that I shot the last time I went to classic auto Mall. I did like 15 cars that day it was like 930 at night. I didn’t get home until 3 o’clock in the morning when I go there. It’s generally a 23 hour day. I just got back from there that’s why comment is a little later than usual I just did the trip to the day before yesterday and it took a lot out of me yesterday I slept pretty much the whole day. I don’t know why that was the worst trip as far as sleep goes. I got to see a lot of stuff I didn’t get home until 6:30 in the morning the next day because I decided to pull off the road somewhere safe to sleep for a little bit 15 minute nap turned in the three hours.. but eh it was worth it tonight episode engine episode hopefully tonight if it’s not today, will do a double feature tomorrow Wisconsin engine manufacturing company Tomorrow I think it’s going to be 77 Chrysler Cordobra and I’ll admit I got a little bit emotional because when I was in high school or right after high school, I wanted nothing more than a more than Cordoba I thought those cars were absolutely awesome. I did come close to buying one but I was in my 20s and I wasn’t that impressed with the 318 so I never ended up buying one. This one has the Corinthian leather the 400 it would’ve been the car that I really wanted and it was really cool.
This car when new could cruise at 60-65 mph on a highway if need be, although it would be more comfortable at 55-60 mph. Anything above 70 mph would start to strain the engine...tops out at a speedometer-indicated 82 mph, according to someone my grandfather knew who had a 1948 Plymouth sedan.
Family had ⁴⁷ ford and 39pontiac woodies don't recall ever seeing the Plymouths must be rare early 50 s were common instead or the grey poopon they had a can of varnish in the box 🥶
Like those simulated white wall beauty rings they came on some 1942 black out cars, no white walls were not available then. That's a neat spare tire, must be meant for temporary use. First pick 47 Chevrolet wagon , second 47 Jeep wagon. Is the song Fun fun fum -Beach boys, still own a 60's Polaroid land camera on my display shelf my parents bought.
Back in the 1970's I had a buddy who had a 1949 Plymouth sedan. This was very similar but the dash was different and the radio didn't look nearly as cool. It was a lot of fun to drive around in. I don't recall seeing a spare tire placed behind the driver before. I'd choose the 1947 Ford Woody Wagon for the V8 and the 1947 Pontiac Streamliner Woody Wagon which I think looks super cool. I think the Pontiac would make a good episode if you ever run across one.
I did get to do a 48 I’m going to make a playlist of all the woody wagons we’ve done because it’s been over 10. I believe this is the first one with the new camera and it makes a drastic difference you can see everything it’s almost like being there. ua-cam.com/video/1XoVMe83paE/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared I really like that dashboard I believe it’s roughly the same as Chrysler DeSoto I haven’t been in a Dodge that I can remember from around that time, so I don’t know if it’s the same in a Dodge ..
Scenario 1) Ford (surprise); Scenario 2) Pontiac. My grandpa had a gray 1941 Plymouth coupe. The clutch stuck on it, so they tied a rope around it and would pull the rope when the clutch stuck. My mom loved to tell the story of the time she and her cousin borrowed the Plymouth to take it to a nearby town for a shopping trip. Along the drive the clutch stuck, and the car slowed to a stop … not far from a soldier who was hitchhiking. Busy talking and not noticing the soldier - who started to run toward the stopped Plymouth - my mom pulled the rope tied to the clutch, and the Plymouth jerked into motion and sped off. Only then did my mom notice the soldier in the rear view mirror. She and her cousin laughed all the way to town and back … and she laughed her beautiful laugh every time she told that story for the rest of her life. It was also used as an example of why she never wanted a Plymouth.
Those "white walls" were called porta-walls. In 1948 wheel size went to 15". The 2-door body style with the longer rear side window and the roof like the 4-door was called the 2-door sedan, not coupe. GREAT JOB as always.
Those aren’t portal walls, though those are steel actual rims.. Classic catalog gave me all of the body styles. Evidently they got that one wrong instead of fixing it I typed it lol great choices.
my uncle brosie bought a brand new plymouth woody wagon in 1941, but then he went in the service and was eaten by cannibals, so now I have it in the garage next to my corvette
At last, the return of the Woodie Wagons! Anyway, for WYR it’s a tossup between the Ford and the Plymouth first scenario, and a tossup between the Pontiac and the Plymouth. I wish you COULD convey the aroma in that car…I can only use my imagination. BTW is that a vinyl roof?
I think it’s a vinyl roof covering material. It might be canvas I would say it would be a material in between vinyl and canvas… great choices I love wagons. I hope to cover more this year.
A nice car, so it takes the WYR #1 as it's more stylish than the others. Round #2 goes to the Pontiac, but I really like the Willys/Jeep civilian cars.
Forgot to add something about the cars! I really like the 1940-48 Plymouth models! My Mother's first car was a used 1946-48 Super DeLuxe Sedan. It was green. Mom wanted to have a car to drive because they lived kind of far out in the country then, and Dad had the family vehicle to go to work. So Mom got the Plymouth and learned to drive. Dad put two 55 gallon drums out in front of the house and Mom practiced parallel parking between them! Can you imagine? A little 5 foot two lady steering that Plymouth without power brakes OR steering! She told me she loved that little(!) car. There was a very nice 2dr sedan version at our local car show a while back and it was really clean! It was green, too! WYR. . .Just give me ALL of them!!
Thank you so much for sharing all that insight as well as stories and memories great choices. It is Jan & Dean surf city Charles Dalton beat your title.
Great choices not that song or band I missed this premiere I have a really good friend who is building a 54 Hudson hornet 7X engine I got to hear that run. =)
Who would have been the buyer for this 1947. A thrifty Chrysler buyer ? Most Plymouth buyers were very practical buyers such as my Grandpappy. He would not buy a wood car because after a few winters in Iowa nothing would fitb
Woody are cool but maintenance is terrible as the body changes with the weather unless protected. Cars left in weather suffered stuck doors, ill fitting parts etc all caused by chgs in weather and humidity. Cool idea but it dont work in real life
Somehow your money conversion then and now doesn't actually work out. The Woody is the most expensive car in the Plymouth line it would be the equivalent of a modern Chevy suburban and you're not going to get one of those for $23,000 2024 dollars.
Inflation sucks.. plain and simple McDonald’s once cost $.15 for burger $.10 for fries now it’s $7-8 depending on where you’re at.. more money doesn’t mean you get to keep more money… Here is the calculator I use www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/1947?amount=1765

"Hey, son, take them all down and show them the Corvette brochures."
Not sure a wooden body could be allowed today, but I think a vaulted, wood trimmed roof lining would look good without upsetting safety regs.
Just don’t get in a wreck. It’s a great car until you do that…
I believe that the hood ornament lit up, also was that vinyl top?
The top was a mix between vinyl and canvas. I’m not sure if the hood ornament lit up.
yes, it does stick out. They all kind of stick out that way, except for the Jeep which might be a paint decal.
Yes, but what I was trying to point out was the bottom sticks out instead of having the running board there it’s just the wood
