      Commanderpink,
      You need to go back and review the after dinner mint from a few nights ago.
      You may reconize(sp) the car!

        Pretty sharp! I guess that proves that it is very possible to install a "R" Series or Scotsman Grille in place of the more aggressive, he-man '57 to '64 Transtar Grille.

        It would be way more impressive if the owner had painted or decaled the nice custom "Studebaker" tailgate letters that you can barly see.

          That is a very sharp truck. The only thing I would change is the tail lights. I don't even like that style with the chromed plastic on the new stuff.
          Is this truck on a Studebaker frame?

            You're right. I had to go back and look as I didn't even notice. That's a lot of expense to chrome the grill when it doesn't add much to the look of the truck IMHO.

            I'd drive it with pride though. It looks like it was well done.

              Looks like a nice truck and nice work.
              Very usable ride. Would be a fun truck to travel in.
