Thread: Studebakers for Stu cool

Tweet

Didnt want to hijack your thread anymore than I already had,so I will start a new one,strictly for Studebakers,if it hasnt already been done..Slap me if I am a couple of years too late..only been here 18 months..
Here are some more shots of the delivery for you Pat,plus a couple of the chopped and diced coupe..

And a couple more...

Trevor built the black bomber back in the 70s,from memory..And the coupe,as you can see,has been chopped,shortened,sectioned and flip front,BBC power,as is the delivery..

Come on,lets see those Studes..

I don't even like green---but the green Stude is way kewl!!!!

Very cool! Some great vision and workmanship. Any idea what the front end treatment on the first car originated from?

Thanks for posting

Pat

I think I would rather stuff a hyper active Mopar in there myself..

If you like the "Honey I shrink the Stude look" check this little truck we see at Hot August Nights. There is a blower under those carbs if I remember correctly.

Yeesh,that things been abbreviated,hasnt it??Looks kool,would like to see it parked next to another one,stock..

Was talking to the owner of the delivery today,and he showed me a pic of his new toy...Stude of course,53?or 54 [I think]coupe...will put up a pic when his wife sends me one..He dont do computers,gets too much sawdust in the keyboard when he logs on.. Will try to get another pic of the delivery,to show how low it really is..Try tomorrow..We have our AmeriCARna festival on till Saturday night..There are several hundred more American cars and pickups in town for a while..Will post some links in the next day or so..
