Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / February 2009Drove my Cruiser
Saturday, and will again today! Drove it 50 miles to work Friday, and will again Monday, while the Caddy gets a new heater core. Sunny at 65º expected in South Ga. We don't wait for 'drive your Studebaker day.' Makes me wonder why some people keep a Stude if they have to wait for a national club event to DRIVE THE CAR! Dave > Saturday, and will again today!

Currently, not one of my Studebakers, (I have two), is roadworthy. The Power Hawk is almost ready for a test drive after I had to remove the heads because I let the gas go bad and bent all of the intake push rods. The long languishing Prez sedan is going to get an engine change simply because I want to replace the DG tranny with a Flight-O-Matic. The donor engine from a '60 Lark and ealier tranny should be in sometime this summer. This car will be a semi-daily driver along with of my Gen II Honda Civics. The price of gas will determine how often the Stude goes out. JT Must be a ceedan-driving weekend in South Georgia. Today makes two full weeks that I've had my '58 Commander. It runs, drives, and stops pretty well now. :-) Matthew > Must be a ceedan-driving weekend in South Georgia. Today makes two > full weeks that I've had my '58 Commander.

Well, ok.......maybe for you we should call it "Sedan Shine"<G> Paul Hey Paul. Rubbing out the paint is one of the next things on the list. The car is coming right along. Matthew |
