1947 Fleetmaster "woodie" 

Con Oamek showed off this beautifully restored 1947 Chevrolet 2100 Fleetmaster 4-door station wagon at the 2019 West Capital Raceway Alumni association car show in Carmichael California. 

an excerpt from the 1947 Chevrolet sales brochure  

Only 4,912 of these station wagons were produced out of Chevrolet’s total production of 684,000 vehicles. With seating for eight in the 116-inch wheelbase chassis, this car cost nearly $1,900 when the average car cost about $1,300.

With a steel cowl, windshield pillars, fenders and underbody on a steel girder frame, the body was built of ash with mahogany panels built by Ionia Manufcaturing Company in Michigan under contract to General Motors. 

The body has a leatherette "Detroit Weatherproof" top, and with a curb weight of nearly 3,500 pounds this wagon was not a high-performer equipped with Chevrolet’s inline 216-cubic inch six-cylinder engine fed a single barrel carburetor that developed 90 horsepower.

Notice the well-appointed golden walnut grained dashboard with full compliment of gauges.
