        I could ask a thousand questions, but i wonder what the stickers are on the panel at the rear of the engines?
        And are these just problem engines?

            Wow, too bad we can't see what the technician is doing. Are those bars bolted to the rocker arms used as a floor for the valve adjusting tool?

            Malcolm Berry wasn't working there, was he?

              I'd sure like to have a Studebaker test stand, wonder what ever happened to them.

                      Could they be some sort of oil collection device?

                            Are those little air cleaners for test running only?

                              Based on the blurr of the fan belt on the nearest engine it appears the engine is running.
