Woodie News

The Hudson River Museum is seeking a woodie to BORROW, not purchase, for a four month exhibition about the history of American suburbs. We want to find a collector, preferably in the NYC metro area, who would like to lend to the exhibit. Ideally we would love a Dodge or Plymouth Westchester Suburban (because the exhibit examines Westchester County as a prototypical suburb). The museum will insure and pay all related expenses, and invite the collector to the reception and other related events. The car would be displayed indoors and not be handled by visitors. The exhibition is from Jan. 28 to May 28, 2006.

For more information, please contact:

Old Woodies - Who, What & Why

The Old Woodies web site is an independent, educational endeavor that started as an Internet journal of random research on old woodies by David Miller. The site is updated as time allows. When he is not running Silverback Studio, David likes to work on his long-term projects, 1940 GMC woodie and a 1929 Red Bug.
