The reason I have been unable to get a MG the last few years.

It's almost done. It’s a 1952 Studebaker with a BBC/400 and a Ford 9â€. I have to finish the exhaust, mount a plate, do a front end alignment, and finish up some small odds and ends.

Hey, the truck looks great. It's evident where your playtime money, and probably a lot that wasn't, has been going. At least it's been well spent.

I like it!! At last, a real truck!!

Keep up the good work!

A friend of mine up in Mt City has a '49 w/ a small block/700r4 I like it. His and yours.

....ahhhh a bear in his natural habitat......a Studebaker.

[Chazmr]

Very Nice!

[TGO David]

THAT is much cooler than a machine gun.

Words of truth, right there. I like the truck!

[Guest bkelm18]

Now that is a truck. Very nice.

But not as cool as that truck and a machine gun would be...

[strickj]

Killer truck!

Depends on what kind of machine gun you are talking about. But a cool truck none the less.

I love when guys do builds outside of the "norm". Nice work OP!

[Guest BenderBendingRodriguez]

Good looking! And the color really seems to fit. Nice work.

I'm glad to see that I am not the only one that thinks of the Muppet's every time I see a Studebaker!!

[peejman]

Cool toy!

[Alleycat72]

Thanks everybody. This one was definitely brought back from the dead. It’s been a lot of work. It’s not perfect and never will be, but it’s mine and I did 99% of the work myself. I don’t think I will be passing many on the street.

[Caster]

So....uhh....When do I get to go for a ride in it?

[Alleycat72]

I’m taking a vacation next week so I can get tags, do an alignment, and tie up the loose ends. The shake down run will be about Wednesday. So anyone around Columbia will get a closer look.

Now you should fabricate a mount for the Machine Gun. It would be Way Cool on that truck.

[Mr. Brooks]

That's a beaut. Do you have any before photos?

I love to see old vehicles brought back to life.

Man I love that line! Nobody gets it when I say it.

I may, but think to yourself (Parked since the 80s with an open window and the last paint job was put on with a roller).

Would that require atf approval? It is black powder/muzzle loader, I think not. Just think, if you saved all year long you could buy enough goex to shoot it twice!
