This is our newest project... it is a 48 Studebaker that we picked up because the last owner didn't like the "mileage" it was getting. We have just about completed the air ride. I still need to replace the floors and firewall and do the new dash. We pulled the 283 out and decided to keep it "old school". We have rebuilt it and spent more money on the tired old little motor than something new, but oh well... it should have "the look". The interior will be red leather, the frame detailed, smoothed, powdercoated and chromed, but the exterior paint is staying.
