Not sure if anyone here has seen this site yet. Lots of nice inside shots of the stamping plant: http://www.opacity.us/site63_studebaker_stamping_plant.htm#gallery107 What were all those engines for? > Not sure if anyone here has seen this site yet.

The pictures show cut hoses. Too bad it's not a stash of R3 NOS engines<bseg>. Mark 65 Cruiser http://home.alltel.net/anderm I found this link inside that site: http://atdetroit.net/forum/messages/5/62769.html?1137635869 More interesting pics. Mark 65 Cruiser http://home.alltel.net/anderm Mark, they never MADE that many R3 engines! (Seriously: If all the R3s were in the same place at one time, there wouldn't even be half that many.) What a stash indeed. BP > Mark, they never MADE that many R3 engines! (Seriously: If all the R3s > were in the same place at one time, there wouldn't even be half that > many.) What a stash indeed.

Probably removed from the trucks when they were upgraded to the newer National Guard Version with the cummins diesel and automatic tranny, central inflation system etc.(Like the newer 5 tons) Old government contract....

Thanks for sharing it. Wonder how many C/K fenders (and fingers) have run through those stamping machines? Jeff (Inquiring minds..)
