And I couldn't think of anything else I'd rather be doing!
Here's me trying to hide behind the engine after we got 'er out. The drivetrain is now resting comfortably at a fellow Studebaker fans garage.
Just waiting for some V8 power:
Lots to do before an engine sits back between those frame rails. I pulled the drivers fender tonight. It was a fun job since a previous owner had the bottom of the fender welded to the rockers [xx(] and there was a heavy (and I mean heavy!) layer of undercoating covering just about everything including the fender bolts. I was surprised to find the same undercoating on the cowl behind the fenders. I suspect this was added early in the car's life as the paint was perfect underneath it.
Here's where I'm at now:
I also scored some new parts thanks to Ray Martin! I now have NOS tail light lenses, a grille surround, a V8 emblem for the grille and the chrome ring for the trunk emblem. Now all I need is the V8 insert for this ring. Anyone?
