At least Ford has seen the need to change in the last year. They at least have been advertising something besides their PU's and SUV's all the time. The smaller cars won't make the profit that the others make, but the others don't make you anything if they aren't selling.

If you wanted a suburban type vehicle, you either bought a Chevy, GMC or the ever popular International Travel All.
1948 and earlier Ford & Merc Woodies are now bringing between 10 grand for a ratty parts car to over a 100 grand for minty ones.
If the Ford Woodie is a rare Marmon-Herrington 4WD conversion, add another 50 grand. If the Merc is a super rare M-H conversion (3 were made TOTAL!), add another 100 grand plus!
In 1946/48, Ford offered the Sportsman, a convertible Woodie! A minty one will easily bring 150 grand today. Double that price for a 1946 Merc Sportsman, only 205 were made.
The last Woodie I bought was in 1967, a two owner all original 1947 Ford with a Columbia (old car guys know what that is) and all three seats.
The price? $500.00.

Ford didn't offer any sort of surburban vehicle at all back then. There were a few conversions done to panel trucks by Crown Coach, but that was it.
