Hot Rods Take a look at this car, need help to identify

Woodill (Woodhill)?

I'd say a one- off handbuilt Pan- Am 'hot- rod'.

p.s. It couldn't really be a Cunningham could it?

 

That was the first thing to enter my thought process....

 

Again, this car being my brothers, I have known it since the 60s. We towed it home with Dad's '41 Chevy pick-up that my brother also still owns.(I have been bugging him to "hot rod" the pick-up for years!) The welds on the frame are top notch and it appears to be professionally built. The body mounting tabbing and final finishing are rather crude. This is definately a kit-car from the mid to late '50s. Geoff Hacker from "forgotten fiberglass" said he has found an old add for the body but we haven't seen it yet. Also the Cunninghams sported aluminum bodies and early "hemis". This may be the only surviving example of this early kit body!

 

Up Again...Thanks for all the great comments...they are very helpful.
