    Maybe if you removed the beauty rings it would create more contrast between the black wheel and the whitewall.

    Yumm, me likey!!! I have never liked the way this style beauty ring doesn't cover all the rim like a ralley ring does, just me. It still amazes me how such a little change can make such a big impact. Thanks for playing around with it. You guys have a donation site? What program do you have? I'd like to learn to do this to help others when I had time. Thanks again.

    Thanks, most of us here do it to help and it's also cathartic. I'm guessing 99% of us use Photoshop. It just takes time to learn and play with and there's a ton of information on the internet and youtube. Pay attention to the work that Moose does, he's the big cheese on this site.

    Thanks! That’s great...think I’m going to have to go with a lighter peacock blue/shark bite flake, it is a bit too dark for me.

    If I may, could you add a bit of shadow on the tires

    A little morning exercise.

    Just like that! Convincing, study, for sure!

    I had never noticed how much those GM 3-windows favor similar-year coupes from other manufacturers like Studebaker and Packard.

    Could someone please add wide white wall tyres to current wheels, and also change to chrome smoothie wheels with wide white wall tyres, thanks.

  18. Would you try again for me? The last color just wasn't dark enough. Thanks again

  19. You have posted a very low resolution poorly lit photo so showing a dark color with good contrast does not work well. The whole photo could be reconstructed but it's far easier to start with a good photo. Here's on a bit darker and as you can see the contrast with the background is very poor but maybe you'll get some idea of how it would look.

  20. I wish I could get a better picture but can't do that until later in the week. I understand what you are saying and appreciate the work!

    Ive always thought that the Studebaker Champ pickups were somewhat awkward but had potential. In either configuration the bed strikes me as being out of place, the fleetsides were too boxy and oversized while the stepsides felt too rounded. Would it be possible to see the rear fenders of this stepside swapped for the rear fenders off of a 60-66 Chevy Stepside? Im really curious how that would look. Sorry if the picture isn't high enough resolution, I had to grab it off the net. 20180702_170257.png
     
  24. Here it is with and without the rear step

    Hey moose I'm picking this car up this week. I was seen if you could put some wide white walls on it with some caps. lowered skirted with some lake pipes. Maybe gold paint with black roof or any colors you think might look good. Thanks in advance. 1955.jpg

    @55Deso
    Agreed. This was a company that was in decline at this time and basically worked with what it had with no consideration to design. Hence, a car front end mated to a truck bed. Engineer wise it works but design wise it didn't.
    For me, the issue of clunkiness could have been overcome with a few modifications. A) the rear fender could have been leveled off or rotated so that the top was level and not sloping downward. B) Rouding off the bottom of the bed so that it matched the bottom of the cab and rounding of the top edge of the back of the bed. Basically getting rid of the angularity.
    C ) Continue the indentation from the cab all the way through the bed. In essence pulling it together so that the bed complimented the cab.

    But, that's just my opinion and we all have one.

    Thank you @themoose and @madfish. I might just have to keep an eye out for a cheap Champ, I think I'd like to experiment with this in steel. Thanks again for the visual.
