Just down the road from me someone has a 1939 Studebaker President sirtting
in his driveway, for sale.
I hate to see such a beautiful car go unwanted.  Someone MUST purchase this
car and restore it!

   In my first 10 years or so in the hobby, I pretty much assumed all
Studebakers, leaked oil, smoked, rattled and handled badly.
Occasionally, I'd get a well maintained car that did none of the above.
I think when Studebakers were 'beaters', owners mistreated them and

I figured I better post this before the "infamous" Bob Palma does! Purdue is
now 5 and 0 this season, they beat Penn State at Penn State today 20-13
And you guys thought Indiana was known only for basketball! <G>

OK, so you guys don't get irritated all season long with the weekly
posting of Purdue football victories on The Studebaker NewsGroup,
here's a legitimate Studebaker/Purdue trivia question. [Dick Quinn:

Had a guy in our plant at work today to set up the fuel/air controls on one
of our boilers.We got talking about Harleys as he drives an Ultra,then when
on to collectable cars.I showed him a couple of Studes on my computer,and he
was saying how he'd restored a 66 Mustang,along with ...

  Just sold another MC on ebay (47-64 under floor) There is nothing
unusual about that, except it's for a  Indian 1951 Dispatch Tow Police
bike.<g>

   I figured out a way to paint emblems like the red/whitw/blue GT
grill ornament and it should work on any emblems with recessed sections.
(R1-R2, 63 Lark) I got all old color out of the sections, than stuck the
emblem through the bottom of a cardboard box to keep it flat. I ...

Have the three Studes in the shed, and the shed is laced with mouse
poison... and a cat, to keep out the mice...  Work so far..
I don't know which is worse... the mice or the cat!
I have a California Car Cover (not cheap) on the Avanti, and the da&^ cat

Well this afternoon, my wife and I started to clean up, and access the
condition. I found what I will call a build sheet under the front seat. Its
5" long & 1" high, it reads;
1932 B P4 P11 ARCTIC 8465142

I've committed (or maybe should be committed <g>).  Fred Cook is coming down
to my FBO at Watsonville, CA, Thursday AM.  We'll leave Ocean Air about noon
and take S2D to Alex's house in Oxnard Thursday PM (Alex has graciously
agreed to put us up Thursday night).  We'll convoy with ...

One of the items that I picked up at this year's Hershey was a supercharger.
How about one of you supercharger experts trying to identify it?  The number
on it is VS57c, instead of the normal VS57s for the '57 Golden Hawk. It has
a shorter snout (perhaps cut down?), and 2 small ...

Packed the truck....
