Phildaupho Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 After just completing a 1948 Ford Woody and seeing the old Longroof thread make a reappearance I thought it would be cool to have a thread dedicated to Woodies. Sort of like a scale on-line version of Wavecrest, the huge Woody show in Encinitas California usually in late September. I will get the ball rolling. First a fuzzy group shot My just completed 48 Ford Resto-Mod Woody 32 Ford Woody built for Deuce Days in Scale 2019 1950 Ford F-1 truck combined with a '41 Woody Speedwagon converted from Deuce to '34 Wagon and I call it a Woody 1949 Ford Woody which was maybe my first serious model car build since I was a kid constructed in the early 1990's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyW Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 One of mine... And although it's not one of my builds, this 1967 Airfix catalog shot of the MPC Woodie with Hot Curl and his bike and board needs including. Can anyone recreate the shot with a built model? That really would be cool. Airfix and MPC had a deal going on in the sixties to release each others kits. Although the Woodie appeared in two catalogues it's never yet been seen in an Airfix box.

alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Great subject for a thread, Phill! Here are some of mine. First, the AMT 41 Ford. A great kit, really nice to build but tricky to get down in the weeds. I trimmed the crossmember, shaved the spring, sliced the tyres and slotted the backing plates and it still needs to go lower!

Dave Van Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) A few..... Monogram kit. Done in a late 50's early 50's Surf wagon Christmas vacation Taurus wagon made from combo SHO with Dodge mini van kit Edited June 11, 2020 by Dave Van Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Here's my AMT 39 Chev Wagonrod. A very cool car with an outstanding contemporary chassis, but man, that late model dash was a bear to convert to RHD, especially when you can hardly see it now that it is finished!

alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 My Monogram 1930 woody, purchase on a school trip in Albury New South Wales in 1973 and built as soon as I returned home. Many years later I added the hood from a 1930 Phaeton. Still brush painted in Humbrol dark green after all these years! About two decades later, built the purple one with yellow flathead running gear - spray paint this time around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 How about a couple of AMT/MPC 28 Woodies. The yellow one done as a delivery, the blue one with flathead power and an angled chop, just because! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The aqua 39 is a resin body that I converted from a 40. The black one is an Ertl diecast that I detail painted and added red steels and hubcaps to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Last one for now, my hawk Silly Surfer Woodie on a Surfari. My wife used her acrylic folk art paints to add some life to the driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Darby Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Some very cool Woodies in this thread! Here's one of mine. Not an original, this was built from the 2007 Revell reissue, with rolling stock from the Blue Bandito. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Thibodeau Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Hi! Lots of imagination here! Here's a Speedwagon, but stretched "à la Boydster", using the hood, front fenders (with wheelwells filled) and front frame section from AM'T's 32 Chrysler cabrio. The cowl was removed and rebuilt under the hood to allow continuous side panels to the front door cut-line and base of glass, which was replaced with a slightly curved unit. Lot's a fun!
