Default Studebaker

Hey guys (gals) - I haven't been haning out here lately as much as I used to. The nothing fancy '77 is still running great and as much fun as ever to drive. I took some time and painted my '72 Blazer and then pulled my'52 Studebaker truck into the shop/garage to get started on it.

You can see a few pics here:

Including a shot of the dual carb, aluminum head, Studebaker Champ flathead 6 --- now that's a blistering 50+HP of pure Amercian power!

What a coincidence, on my way in to work today I saw 3 Stubaker trucks sitting in a field for sale. 2 were pickup and the other was a larger 1.5 or 2 ton. I think they make a cool street rod.

I used to have a Studebaker as well but she was a Ridgeback/Labrador cross!
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Rare beast of a truck though!
My daily driver is a '68 Bonneville Hardtop Coupe with the 345Hp/400 TH400 and 2.41 rear end. One of 2 in the Oz. Just passed 300Kmiles that I know of.

:cheers:
