A man in his natural habitat...a Studebaker!

Hadn't posted any pictures of the Studebaker since I got it on the road. For those that don't know about the Stude, I bought it from a member named Roddin Ron, no motor or trans. I dropped in a 350 SBC, mostly stock and used a 700r4. Ron had installed an S10 front frame section and the rear with the springs. I rewired the car installed gauges and shifter, aluminum radiator to get it back on the road. Patched some rust and sprayed it Rustolem flat black. Had some bugs to work out but I have put several hundred miles on it and havin fun. Here's some pictures.[cl
I have the running boards , coated them with bed liner but I will have to make some fillers between the front fenders and the boards since they don't fit just right, may be they are not original 40.

I like it! All the right dents in all the right places.

Nice! [cl

My first chance to see you car, looks good, the running boards will finish the look. But it's always more fun to drive than work, i haven't made much progress since i put mine on the road.

Enjoy your cruise'n [cl

No I haven't heard from him. Think he is building a Nova non rat type.
