What were 'Woodies' made from - station wagons were in the 50's.

We had Wood carrier top that had to have Spar put on it now and then.
I want to say the tailgate also, but not the sides.

Is there a good way to tell what kind of solid wood was used?
And why would it have what looks like bullet holes in the back?
Ash and Oak were commonly used for automotive body framing - Fischer
Body division of General Motors used wood framing up untill 1937.
