Beach Wagon

A beach wagon, commonly referred to as a “woodie,” is a type of station wagon characterized by its wooden body panels. Historically, these vehicles were popular in the mid-20th century, especially in the United States, often associated with surf culture and beach towns. The wooden panels were typically made from hardwood such as maple or ash, which gave these cars a distinctive appearance. They were often used for family outings to the beach, hence the name “beach wagon.” Today, woodies are prized as classic cars and evoke a nostalgic charm of a bygone era.
