I just watch a piece last week on the local public television station here about the union riots that took place in Minneapolis back in the early 30's. During a vintage film sequence, they show a 32 woodie being burned by the protesters. That brought a tear to my eye. Seeing this one definately brought my smile back!!! Congrats on a great find!!
What little I know about '32 wagons is the fact that they came with snap on side curtains and others that slid up under the top slats in tracks. I don't see a V8 on the headlight bar so I'm guessing this a Model B 4Banger. I think there were more produced that stated in another post, there are 3 within a 45 minute drive of my keyboard. Bob
That restored woody pictured above is a perfect example of why restoring/hotrodding something like this would nearly destroy it. I'd honestly walk right past that restored woody, but I'd probably walk around this thread's woody for a very long time and admire not only the lines of the car, but how it has aged....where drivers have grabbed the door and worn it down a bit.....and on and on.
WOW, Nice. Cris<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> vbmenu_register("postmenu_7814855", true); </SCRIPT> was that located in VT ?
No, it was in New Hampshire, small but densely populated town, in a garage just off the main drag. I have chased a few '32 leads in VT but they've all ended unsuccessfully so far. I will get some more current photos in a week or so. Here are a couple in my dad's friend's shop after they dragged it out.
Thanks again Cris, bet this would look nice with a boat be hind it. Bob http://www.weirsonline.com/boatshow.htm
