woodies

Surfers' vintage vehicles

Woodies is the plural of woody, with several applications.

Station wagons with wood-paneled sides were called woodies, now mostly collector's items: The surf culture of the 1960s made woodies iconic.

Woodies can also be woodpeckers, or in vulgar slang, erections.

A surfing or car enthusiast might attend a woodies meetup at the beach.
