That is just awesome. I have seen several incredible builds using '50 & '51 Studbakers lately.

Beautiful, I bet fitting that glass was a real chore. Nice upgrade to a classic beauty.Comment

I was wondering if they used a New Beetle second generation roof. It kinda looks like it.
I see a Mustang shifter too.

I seem to remember it was a Mitsubishi Mirage....I was wondering if they used a New Beetle second generation roof. It kinda looks like it.
Also, if it was mine - I'd take out the jet exhaust, and put another bulletnose there.The only difference between death and taxes is that death does not grow worse every time Congress convenes. - Will RogersComment

THAT'S IT!Maybe it was an Eclipse?
Forget that VW stuff. The new Bug wasn't even produced when this car was finished over 5 years ago, and it's obviously NOT a Karmann Ghia.The only difference between death and taxes is that death does not grow worse every time Congress convenes. - Will RogersComment

Not much '51 about it, aside from the grilles. Bullet is '50, and the dash looks more '50 than '51, and the headlight doors are '52. The jet exhaust and the little blivets on the rear window look kind of hokey. Otherwise, a nice car, and well-proportioned. I'd love to have it my garage.Gord Richmond, within Weasel range of the Alberta BadlandsComment
