Fantastic The new Stude owner will be thrilled. He just joined the club hasn't joined the Local yet but its great to have another young new Studebaker owner. I asked him to come on this site and introduce himself. So soon you should hear from him. Another Robert.

I still have my J - 2044 Kent Moore USA spreader after many years of useage but figure its too far to send it to CA for a lend. Good luck in borrowing one.

Is that the same spreader that later cars use? If so you can use mine (if Bob cant find his).

Yes, that J-2044 was listed & fits the Studebakers of the sixties.

Chuck Collins has them. He rents some tools.
