    You are one lucky SOB!
    No deceptive flags to prove I'm patriotic - no biblical BS to impress - just ME and Studebakers - as it should be.

                        Nice prop! If I could find a decent 50 bullet, I'd mount one on my car...

                          Congratulations for being the winner and caretaker of this fantastic car. Enjoy it and remember Tom will be smiling every time you drive it. I am sure it is where he would want it to be.

                              i certainly hope so! that's going to be up to the NC-DMV , the weather that day, a little maintenance and a good "health" day.
