STUDEBAKER
PAGE
Welcome fans of the pride of South Bend.
I am a long-time Studebaker fan and Studebaker Driver's Club member, having owned a 57 Silver Hawk in high school and a 59 Lark Regal Hardtop in college.
Since then, I have owned other Studes as hobby cars including a 62 Champ Pickup, a 64 Canadian Commander Special, a 62 GT Hawk, a 60 Lark Regal 4-door, and my present 57 Silver Hawk (not the same one I owned in high school -- that one I wrecked).
If you have any suggestions or comments, please send me a message.
Both text and image contributions are welcome.
STUDE OF THE MONTH
MARCH 2003
1958 Studebaker Scotsman Station Wagon
Rear View
Under the Hood
And the Interior
This beautiful 1958 Studebaker Scotsman Station Wagon belongs to Roy Buchanan of Spring Hill, Florida.
Under the hood is a Studebaker racing motor built by Bob Beach with R3 headers, cam, and a Holley 4 barrel carburator.
The car has GM power steering and a Ford 9" rear end.
The wheels are American Racing mags and the car has been lowered 3 inches.
And there are lots of louvers in the hood.
Those are VDO guages in the dash, and the paint is Black Cherry with ghost graphics.
It is really great to see a hot rod Stude wagon with Stude power to boot!
MORE COOL STUDES
1951 Studebaker Starlight Coupe
Under the Hood
Rick Mannas sent along these updated pictures of the 1951 Starlight coupe he is working on.
To this point, Rick has shaved the body lines and Frenched the head lights.
His next step is to French 1954 Studebaker tail lights into the rear.
Hopefully, we will get to see the finished product on this page.
1950 Studebaker Starlight Coupe
This picture was taken by Roger Bass at the 2001 Studebaker International Meet.
Bill Hower sent it to Bill Junge who sent it to me.
What a beautiful car!
Another Junkyard Picture
Here is another shot from the group of pictures Bill Junge sent along of a Studebaker wrecking yard in British Columbia.
Bill has his own web site called Bullet Nose Paradise which is dedicated to 1950 and 1951 Bulletnose Studebakers.
Thanks again to Bill for helping to keep this page in new material.
If you own or once owned a Studebaker or related vehicle and would like to see your car as "Stude of the Month" or in the "Cool Studes" section, or if you have other pictures or material that you would like to see in this page, please e-mail me here.
I can accept either electronic or hard copy images.
