In fact, I kinda wish they'd gone a little further in the customizing. It still look just a bit too stock Studebakery.
But I do like it.sals54

Except for where they got carried away at the rear, it appears to be mostly stock 1953 Commander Starliner with AT.Gary L.

May as well be honest. I'm not a fan. I love the look of a stock 53, but IMHO, the modifications that were made were a downgrade. Customizing was a big deal for a while, and some of the work is amazing, but the original design is pretty hard to beat.Tom Senecal Not enough money or years to build all of the Studebakers that I think I can.
