1947 Ford Super DeLuxe Sportsman Convertible Woody | Vintage Auto TV

In the early 1940's American automobile factories were switched over to produce airplanes, tanks, and other machines to support the war effort. After the Allied forces claimed victory, it took a few years for automakers to design and manufacture new cars which America was hungry for!
To meet the American appetite automakers like Ford would simply update pre-war models and add some special features to draw consumers to the showroom. Ford created the Super DeLuxe Sportsman Convertible 'Woody'.
About thirty-nine hundred of the special Sportsman's were built. Today, nearly 65 years later, very few examples are remain.
Here is a story of a one such 1947 Ford Super DeLuxe Sportsman Convertible Woody. Bought new at Seller's Ford dealership in Detroit Michigan by George Rock Sr., this® Sportsman has been in the Rock family ever since.
