Commander "Cody" looks great!
I just love watching those old Commander Cody serials (it was actually Commando Cody). They are so camp. I'm glad you picked up that name for your car. Cool.

We never took a tractor, combine, car or truck to a shop we had to fix it ourselves at home, if not it went to the hedgerow.

Thank you Bob. We had several Studebaker workhorse grain trucks in Nebraska. We'd go to Union Nebraska to the dealership there for parts. We ran those old trucks into the early 70s. Wish I had them now. That dealership stayed open into the 70s it was like going back in time.Originally posted by sweetolbob View PostVery nice collection - you do nice work.

Commander Cody (George Frayne) is still producing music and occasional touring; though I believe it is now Commander Cody and His Western Airmen.
Good time rockin' boogie!
Most remembered release is "Hot Rod Lincoln."
