Back in Jan. of '11, I found it sitting on a trailer at the Stillwater, OK Kicker headquarters, and took what could have served as before pics, but I seem to have lost all of the pictures I took of it.
I do know that contact was made between a Stude guy north of us and the Kicker staff, trying to save the driveline, etc. Never heard if the deal worked out or not.
We talked about it in this thread:
Glad to see the car made it to SEMA, hope the original driveline found a good home!!Last edited by Studedude; 11-05-2013, 06:22 PM.sigpic

Whenever you see a Studebaker at a nationally recognized car event or getting nationwide press, they all seem to be custom and modified cars.
Does this tell us anything about the future of Studebakering?
I prefer the woody, the orange one is difficult to identify as a Stude and the first one is too dark for my taste - dark paint with dark wheels, well done to its creator anyway.John Clements

You guys at SEMA keep an eye out for my son, Alan. He is there as a buyer for Amazon and I have tasked him with visiting all the Studes. If you see him, give him the secret Studebaker greeting.Don Wilson, Centralia, WA

At the NSRA nats north this year, both types of Willys output were well represented.
The base model stockers with the Chevy V8s, and the SS models with the added superchargers.
It's amazing how many have survived in such good shape.

I am a bullet nose fan. I love a good custom and the workmanship on the Woody is beautiful. However, I'm not so crazy about the extreme slope of the fastback and the significant extension of the rear fenders beyond the 'tailgate'. The proportions don't feel right. Feel free to disagree.\"Ahh, a bear in his natural habitat...a Studebaker!\"
