Yes it is! I'm super excited this is finally happening. I've owned this car for 53 years this will be the third and final paint job for me on this car.

Well I get a call from the painter. He had put my car on hold to finish another project. Good news he finished that one and mine is next. It has had all the body work completed and blocked and primed. Now just to shoot the jambs and color.

I started on this car about 1972. So I've been working on it for over 50 years now!

Damn after 2 years in body shop prison the Studebaker is finally getting some color. Doing the jams and parts. Maybe I'll get out back this year.

Great build and pix!!! Keep them coming. My grandpa had a 51 business coup, I’d like to build one before I die
Thanks for sharing
