1932 Ford Other Wood Additional Info:

Extremely rare original paint 1932 Ford Woody. Only 1052 of these wood bodied model B wagons were made in 1932, it's estimated that there are less than 10 remaining stock examples left.Great project!
This came out of Indiana and has obviously been indoors for decades, it comes with the Indiana title and clean numbers. It is in incredible original condition considering its age, there is hardly any rust out and the wood floor is still strong, the original paint is obviously scratched and flaking in parts, but its very rare to find a 32 Ford with its original paint. I was planning to leave it with all its original patina and put all the old wood back together and make a "Grapes of Wrath"/ "Dustbowl" looking survivor out of it, but I just have too many other projects and need to let a few go, so some lucky person will end up with this woody, one of the rarest of all 32 body styles. The original upholstery is still on the seats and it's very rare to find the original rear jump seats! These are usually gone since they pop in and out easily and often got discarded for more cargo room.
After doing an inventory of all the wood that was there, I had a few important structural made new from Wood n Carr here in Long Beach CA, I got the B, C and D pillars and the roof rails as these pieces carry the main structure together. My plan was to stain them dark to match the old wood, but the new owner can decide which way to go with it and if you wanted all new wood, Wood n Carr can provide it or they can put the entire body together for you, they have original 32 patterns, I also know where some more wood pieces are that are available.
Most of the really hard to find woody only metal pieces are here, door latches, roof corner bracket, quarter brackets etc. but some will have to be sourced, for instance the rear tailgate hardware and side curtain tracks but it can all be made or found, I know some of the best Woody people out there and can help with resources. Please take a look at the pictures in the link below, there are tons of detail pics so you can see every inch of the amazing Station Wagon.
