    Nicely done.

    If that's the one I think it is (I remember the colors and dual quads), the owners/restorers are to be commended.

    "Before" photographs displayed with the car in South Bend revealed it to be one of the worst ones you could have undertaken, but they did a nice job. BP
    We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

      Those fins are the only ones I can remember on a Stude that our fins resemble.

        Could argue that it is the original "Muscle Car", put the big V8 in a smaller body. Studebaker did it 8 years before Pontiac. I've always felt that the Hawk line, starting with the '53's, originated the pony car concept 10 years before Fords Mustang.
