  • Off-roading in a 1921 Studebaker, and getting it stuck! (video)

    Per the video description:
    The Central Oregon T-Bums are a group of antique car enthusiasts who go on overloading and off-road trips in their 100+ year old cars. They take these things places that a lot of modern rigs won't go and do it just like it was done back in the old days! On their latest trip they were in the middle of the Ochoco National Forest when they got caught in a surprise thunderstorm that saturated the area.
    They had to take shelter in their cars and by the time the storm had passed, the ground was so muddy that they couldn't get out. So they stayed the night in the woods, and then I headed out the next day with my Jeep TJ-6 to try and get them out. Once we got to them it had dried out enough that some were able to make it out on their own, and were then able to recover the others, but the 1921 Studebaker was stuck pretty bad.

    I think the description should say 'overlanding', not 'overloading'.

      I follow Casey, and I watched that video. What really concerned me was, Casey was using a kinetic energy rope. Most of the parts on that old gal are fragile. Luckily, he didn't hit it too hard, and pull parts off.
