We had more than 50 people turn out for our chapter meeting today, we actually overflowed the restaurant meeting room and had standing room only for the business part of the meeting. Afterwards we were invited to visit Nissen's Hot Rod Garage in Williams, CA where the custom 1934 Studebaker show car known as the "Stugatti" was built. John had a nice surprise for us by having the owner bring it down for all of us to see. Members were all impressed with the Nissen's operation and the cars they have under construction. They are definitely master fabricators and metal workers. As another treat one of our new members brought his recently found Studebaker Roadster to show us. Members were all making their best estimate as to what year it was after deciding that it did have a Light 6 engine and pointing out that it did not have front brakes.
Here are some pictures of the Stugatti, which is available for purchase by the way. The workmanship and vision are spectacular. No price was quoted, but the comment offered was it is reasonable for what the car is.
The second cowl complete with full instrumentation
And the roadster
And finally a non-chapter member stopped by to show us the '34 Studebaker 3 window coupe street rod he has for sale. ($40k) Sure beats your belly button 30 something Ford coupe, lol
