The Stude is one of the best lookin P/U's ever built. My opinion. If you
ever see one done up right, well maybee you'll like them too.
Another pretty one is a Diamond-Reo. Or even a White-Mustang.
I've owned an Avanti and a 62 Grand Turismo coupe.Stude was ahead of its time in many ways...just didn't have the same government backing as the Big 3.
Parts are surprisingly available(except body).
You will definately get attention driving a Stude,and even more when you park it.The main thing you'll discover is that everyone you meet has an uncle who had a Studebaker.
Keith, glad to see that you decided to do something that wasn't so much work
I'd take one but my next project I want either a 57 short wide big window or some sort of panel truck.
Great ideas have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.
