Summary: Woodies from a woodworkers point of view
Comment: I have been a profesional woodworker for more than 25 years now. I also love cars so the two paths have converged and I am building woodies now. Mr. Johnson's book about automotive woodworking is excellent. He is the only author of automotive woodwork that I have ever read that is really a woodworker. He obviously knows his way around a shop and relates it well. This is great book for anyone interested in doing woodwork on your car, with step by step instructions right on the money. Lets hope he continues to share his wealth of knowledge of woodworking and woodies.

Summary: A NECESSITY for restorers and hot rodders alike
Comment: Restoring a woodie is a challenge for car guys used to working with metal, but almost ALL old cars have wood in them, whether it's structural or decorative. In addition, automotive wood is subjected to conditions that furniture never sees -- vibration, flexing, rain, sun, and ever-changing temperature and humidity. After 50 years or more, it always needs work.

Rollie Johnson is a writer and a professional woodworker -- he's a regular contributor to Taunton's Fine Woodworking magazine -- in addition to being a car guy. He's uniquely qualified to give us the information we need to work with wood in old cars.

This book shows you how to restore, repair, or fabricate all new wood for your restoration or hot rod project, with special attention given to the unique needs of wood in the high-stress automotive environment. Johnson shows us what woods to use, what joinery techniques work best, how to cut and shape complex pieces and even veneers, and what glues and finishes to use. It's first-rate information that any car guy should have in his library -- regular woodworkers will find it a good read too.
