Norwegian Carpenter's 1937 woodie.

Subscribed!!!

 

I call 'Bull Shit'.

You mean you have no woodwork experience other than building cabinet grade framing and making joints that could be left unglued 'cause they are that tight.

I have a son that does that kind of work. He wants to put a wood floor in my '56 Sedan delivery. I told him he would have me kicked off the HAMB.

Nice work,

 

Fantastic Work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Not nice at all.

 

Great reply, too funny! My Norwegian ancestors would be proud. What an inspiring project.

 

hold on this will be good

 

keep us posted, like what I see !

 

You are definately a super craftsmen, that coupe is off the wall cool and I only wish there was a detailed build thread on it. This is gonna be another great build I'm sure.

Great Job..I'm following you, as I have just cut my '39 chevy to make a woodie, So any info and pic's that you would like to share, will be much appreciated. Can you get a couple of shot's of the top of the roof...Thanks...mike

 

Great build! Subscribed.

 

subsribed it should be a very good learning experance

 

As the son of an ametuer cabinet maker, although very skilled self taught woodworker...I recently came to the conclusion, that ANY kind of Hot Rod Woody, would be my ULTIMATE car of choice. Love that you cut up a 4 dr, that was going NO-Where fast, and gave it a new lease on life. Quite sure Henry would approve!! Subscribed.

Crazy talent on this here message board. Very inspirational. Thanks for sharing.

p.s.Florida mold, weather and termites, not very friendly for woodies.

 

Cool, I bet this will turn out great.

 

I didn't find any good pics of the roof from the outside.Covered in canvas a few days ago,Mr.Bonehead.

 

I put the glass in today,in the rear half of the car,so the rear end is nearly finnished.Painted the roof two coats also.
Now I need a radiohead for the dashboard.

 

Amazing talent, i can't cut a straight line in wood.

 

Very nice! You are truly a craftsman!

Oh so fine! Woodies are the best hot rod you can have.

 

Um...Holy shit. This is great. The last time someone homemade a woodie on here, it looked like a piano crate on wheels.

 

Incredible...

I would love to find an old cowl or whatever and do something like that but I wouldn't know where to start.

 

"Um...Holy shit. This is great. The last time someone homemade a woodie on here, it looked like a piano crate on wheels."

i`m still laughing my ass off!

 

Amazing work. Bet you can make a mean batch of lemonaide.

 

Geir (@fordb132) Natvig -

You never cease to amaze me! ... It's just not fair that you have this much talent! ... First a "BLACKSMITH" [with your '36 3wd Coupe (built from a Tudor sedan) and your '32 3wd Coupe (built from an English Tudor sedan)] ... and now a "CARPENTER" [building a '37 Woodie (from a Fordor sedan)]!

I don't remember if I told you ... but in 1887 through 1900, my great-grandparents lived near your hometown of Verdal, Norway (on a farm called "Storholmen", on the south side of the Verdal River) ... My great-grandfather was a very skilled "CARPENTER" and casket-maker ... Unfortunately, I didn't inherit any of his talents.

Your '37 Woodie is going to be bitchin' ... Please keep us updated on your progress!

 

Very nice work, great stuff!

 

Yes,HEMI32,I drove through Storholmen a week ago with my -32 coupe going to a bike meet in Sweden.Thats 30 km from where I live.
The world is so small sometimes..

Got a phonecall today,so I have to go to work for a couple of weeks.
Made a list of small things I can make in my sparetime at work.Besides that nothing is happening with the woodie.Thanks for all the nice comments on my build.

 

Seriously, no, I do mean seriously, you cannot be serious!!
What are you smoking? Wood chips?
And what is wrong with everyone?
This dude is from Scandanavia - isn't that where IKEA comes from?
Is that chipboard you've bui.t it from?
So where the hell is that fuckin' Allen key????
Bravo monsieur.

 

1814 Denmark gave Norway to Sweden, but we gave it up 1905.

And now they got oil, and amazing Hot Rod Builders.

Bummer, we should let them invade us and pay our government debts

 

Wow you made what many dream about and that very good.
Great Work,Thanks
