New project

Picked up a new project last Saturday. 1950 Studebaker 2 door sedan. Plans call for a straight axle front with a 324 olds rocket and a 4 speed.

 

Here is the engine going in it.

 

Here is the planned look. Anyone know anything about this car?

 

VERY Cool!

 

Cool project Eric,,I like the idea of a G***er styled Studebaker! HRP

 

Where was the picture taken? I may have an answer for you.

 

what ever happened to the bullet Keith (k-member) was working on?

his was a '51 business coupe, looks like you have a '50 2 door sedan

Ordered my gears for the 8 3/4 that will be going in her. Also picked up the rest of the parts to rebuils my posi. Going to build a pinion snubber set up for it and add so Traction Masters. Fiished clearing all the front suspension and steering off the frame and am getting ready to start some cutting. Anyone need a 50 stude steering gearbox?

 

Been a busy last couple weeks. Got all front suspension pulled and pulled all the dash. Time to finish cleaning everything and mocking up. View attachment 1876679 View attachment 1876680

Eric, it must be nearly impossible to do that upside down.

 

Fixed the picture. Some reason from my phone the pictures went in upside down. Hoping to get the rear end swapped out this weekend for mockup. Also looking at radiusing the rear wheel wells for the cheater slicks.

 

More work completed.
