  • It Is Yellow But I can always find it.

    I know people don't like yellow cars or green cars. But my wife and kids do. It's been yellow since 1984. It is a Champion converted to a Commander. I have over 90,000 miles on it since the last redo and it is time to redo again.

      I am going to freshen up the motor and rebuild the transmission the overdrive works perfect but if you are going down a hill in 2nd you have to hold it in. Fix all the rock dings and put another coat of Yellow.

          Hey, what is more eye catching than a yellow studebaker? Didn't turning wheels do a special cover spread with yellow convertables or something this summer?

            Yeah.... Yellow is just fine. My bullet nose is being painted yellow.

            And my truck is GREEN!

              My car is green.

              There is a guy here that has a lime green 62 Chevy Impala. That's not the issue. He lives in a yellow house. I hate seeing that car parked outside. Much better in the garage.

                      4- Bar flippers. A guy in Kansas had them reproduced about 10 years ago.

                        Who says people don't like yellow cars? I wish my Stude was yellow instead of the bland bluish green that is has been since it was built....

                          I have a yellow '49 Champion convertible and love it! It gets a lot of positive comments.
