Gateway Classic Cars is proud to present this 2 owner 1941 Ford “Woody” Station Wagon in our Louisville Showroom.

Calumet’s Whirlaway won the Triple Crown in 1941, which adds to the desirability of owning this beautiful Woody Station Wagon. 1946 Calumet Farm had the motor rebuilt, clutch, fuel pump and the top were replaced. The wood was re-varnished along with the metal fender and panels being repainted during this period. The odometer showed 40000 miles. In 1949, Calumet Farm opted to have a new motor and clutch installed with 60000 miles on the odometer. The 2nd owner purchased the car in 1963 from Calumet Farm and lives very near to Calumet Farm to this day. The current owner only had to partially restore it, and has been garaged kept since 1968. Original paperwork from the Ford Dealership in Lexington Ky is in the glove box. The interior of this beauty is clean and simple, just as it would have been in 1941.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
