    Do you have pix of the back end, especially the doors? I would be interested to know what sort of van/panel truck body they grafted onto that Bulletnose.

        That is way cool! The hubcaps are the same as the ones that were used on my car in the movie Stand By Me. 57 or 58 Plymouth, I think. I really like it!

        Thanks

            At first I thought it was PhotoChopped, but it seems someone did a good job of melding a bulletnose front clip to a MoPar wagon. It certainly doesn't look like a Studebaker from the windshield back. Color choice infers they weren't looking for stealth.

              Seen this before but still outrageous! The gate and rear window looks to be early Lark but no idea on the rest. What an amazing amount of fab work went ito it

                    THanks for the link, Chris. It was an interesting article. The guy apparently fabbed the panel delivery sheetmetal. I agree with Bob that the tailgate looks like it came from a Lark wagon. I take exception to one statement in the article, however.
                    Studebakers aren’t generally cool, but there’s no denying Trev is rapidly changing that.

                      All that work and he went and put the steering wheel on the wrong side.

                        For some reason, I miss the sweep of the '50 rear fenders. This is nice work to be sure but, why not keep the design work integrated?
