To answer your question: yes, we will use wood again. Original cars were really very nicely done, with walnut veneers on the dash, door tops and other places, and oak and ash framing. We will try to duplicate it as much as we can. The idea is to have a modern car that is based on an old one to the maximum extent reasonably possible. One thing I have learned since beginning this project is that no matter how cars like this look on the outside (and of course this one was a mess, but still had secrets!), their true condition is unknowable without a complete tear down.
