Julia is right. Station wagons with wood sides were woodies. Listen to almost any surfing song from the 60's by the Beach Boys or Jan and Dean.
By the way, these days a woody refers to a male erection, but don't tell your mom I told you.

Station wagons with wood sides are called woodies
The opening verse to the song Surf City by Jan &Dean is
"I got a 30' Ford wagon and they call it a woody
Surf City here we come
You know its not very cherry , its an oldie but a goodie
Surf City here we come
Well it aint got a backseat or a rear window
But it stll get me where I wanna go"
That song is at least 40 years old.
The grammatical device used in the commercial is called a double entendre. This commercial is interesting in that it gets you to think of the" dirty "meaning of the word" woody"first and then shows you cars that are in fact constructed from wood. Usually double Entendres work the other way and songwriters are notorius for using them.

Why's your mom shocked? I don't know how old she is, but she should remember that they used to make cars with wood panels on the sides and people called them "woodies" and no one got all upset about it.

well i dont know how old you are but in some slang terms a woodie is when a man is excited sexually. If you dont understand that then you are not old enough to "get"it.
