I am pleased to report the sale of my 56J to a couple in Tenn. They are buying a beautifully restored piece of Studebaker history. Am hopeful they enjoy the car while in their care. Am attaching a few shots of the car out in the front yard on a beautiful autumn day. Last three shots are of three all steel Fords, 1934 5 window coupe, 1934 Victoria, 1935 5 window coupe, we bought this fall for my wife and I to enjoy, along with the Golden Hawks we are building out this winter with the all aluminum GM drive trains.
Wanting to put a few things down on paper for the new owners. My question to those far more knowledgeable regarding this car than I....Might I suggest they change the wide whites from the bias to radial tires ? Would it be a no no for them to add power steering ? How about Turner front disc's ? My personal feeling is the car would handle better and be safer with the disc's...though the front drums and brake system does a very good job. If power steering were added ....anyone know of a nice unit available? Who would you have install it down in Tenn.? Thanks for the input.
