    Does anybody know what has been done to the**** end of the car to get the quarter panels to fit the wheels like this? Has the very back of the car been widened to get rid of the taper? A stock stude crowds the tire at the raar of the wheel opening and has a bigger gap at the front.

    What a stunner! Does anyone happen to know which issue of R&C this was in? I think this is the “Sublime Stude” but I can’t find any info on the car. Just a few pictures.

    I will add a picture of my 53, not as nice (or fast) as the Vintage Air Stude or the Lidgett car (and the car has went over 300 MPH) but I don't have quite as much money in mine either:) IMG_3865.JPEG

    Terry Hunt 1953studebaker1.jpg Bonneville-Speed-Week-2018-Chad-Reynolds-SCTA-169.JPG IMG_9739.JPG I first met Terry Hunt's "Gaum Bomb" at the 50 annual Bonneville Speed week event. Back then I was shooting 35mm film so I don't have a good scanner to share pictures. Back then it was still is very patina-d Studie yellow. But as you see the stance is PERFECT. Terry's craftsmanship stood out then as now some 2-3 owners later. This small block chevy powered monster has many 200mph records for all who have driven this jewel. This color and stoke roof line is amazing. I have lots of picture of this 1.
