1942 Chevy Woodie Wagon
AACA Jr., and Sr. Awards at Hershey. Believed to be the only '42 Chevy Woodie extant. Built for the U.S. Coast Guard, and based in Bath, Me. during the war. Due to the value of chromium during the war effort in the manufacturing of armament, the government forbade Detroit from chroming anything except bumpers during late 1941 and early 1942 production. Ultimately, the government banned the manufacture of all automobiles in Jan. 1942, in order to convert all production facilities to the building of tanks, etc., for the war effort. Thus, any 1942 model is by definition a rare bird. This spectacular example has its original wood, and is detailed top to bottom. It features Chevrolet's incredible OHV 'Stovebolt' six cylinder engine. You'll never see another one like it.
