Ok guys here's my stude. As I mentioned before I am Studebaker newbie.
About a year and half ago me and my wife and a few friends went to a car "museum" basically just a bunch of old cars for sale, and my wife (and me admittedly) went crazy for a 1952 Plymouth suburban (2 door wagon)
So after this chance encounter I kept thinking about it and my wife kept talking about it.
So a few months later I found a 49 Plymouth 2 door wagon that the owner really did want to part with to badly. So after that Saturday road trip that idea was shelved until another day. Fast forward a year and a half. I began thinking I would never find a Plymouth, so I started to look at 63-67 Chevy nova wagons. After all I'm a Chevy guy. So I found one 67 to look at. Went and checked it out. Guy was crazy about novas, probably 30-40 of them sitting around his place. So he was unreasonable about his expections, to me at least.
So that leads me to here. I decided that a nova was just to plain. The oddness of the Plymouth was one of the big pulls of the car in the first place. A plain ole chevy just wouldn't do.
So we took to the internet to see what we liked. And after days and days of looking we decided on a lark.
Now to find one. I looked high and low and finally found one in California ( that I liked) My sister In law lives out there and told me she would check out whatever we found.
So with that a deal was done and we are now owners of a Studebaker lark!
So funny thing is after I bought it I found a listing of it from a couple years ago.
Ha! You can check out the listing here:
Anyway on with the pictures!
