If you receive an email entitled "Bedtimes" delete it IMMEDIATELY. Do not
open it.   Apparently this one is pretty nasty.   It will not only erase
everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks
within 20 feet of your computer. It demagnetizes the stripes ...

A friend of mine wants to rebuild his Paxton model V92. Where can he get
some instructions on how to do it and who sells  a kit?
He knows he needs bearings and races. How do  you know when the brass driver
need to be replaced, or is it just a good idea to always do it. He only ...

Went to a local cruise night with some other Stude guys.  We had my '48 M5
truck, an Avanti II, a '64 Hawk, and a '60 Lark to mix with the 200 other
cars.  There was everything there from a 1930's Lagonda boat-tail speedster
to classic '34 Ford 5-window rods from the '50s to last ...

I'm back home now. Six days in Spokane is long enough, but you wish it
would never end. Although I didn't have the Hawk there, I had a great
time. I've been from coast to coast on these things and love to meet
all the different members you would otherwise never meet.

I have been trying to crank the newly refreshed 169 over and can't get any
oil pressure. According to the shop manual I should have primed the pump
first. This is the problem. The pump has no external plug or hose to remove
and hence prime. Even having the engine kick over and ...

Has anyone published a list giving the names and locations/addresses of
Studebaker dealers that existed over the years?
Currently, I'm looking for any information about the dealer that handled my
'63 Wagonaire.  I think it was Dietz or Deetz Motors in Edgartown, Mass. on

A friend of mine here in St. Louis has put their perfectly restored
1981 Avanti frame on ebay for auction.  They recently finished
restoring a beautiful, show quality 63 R2 Avanti, and don't have the
time to finish this second frame into a running car.

Nice article comparing a '63 injected Vette and a '64 R2 Avanti.
Pictures show why it is always a good idea to dress up when a camera is out

What started out as a broken throttle spring,got me fixing the linkage and
actually sitting down with the manual and trying a bit of tweaking on the
Stromberg WW on my Hawk.The difference is amazing.
I think alot of it had to do with just the idel speed being to low,since I

If folks keep listing stuff like a 2R truck with a 25K starting bid, you
have to make money on your investment.<g>

  Wish it would go cheap. I like that he did it in a retro rod style. I
normally don't care for a radiacl chop, but it looks good.

While working on a GT Hawk today I found a weird piece of metal stuck
inside the water manifold.  About a half inch and kind of double
pyramid shaped. Obviously been there a while.  Anyone know what the
heck it is/was?

If anyone has had trouble getting the $85 rate at the Crowne Plaza
give them another call. We got them to extend the rate until Friday.

Ever dig for a suspected problem and wind up down the wrong hole? <G> When
we got to Spokane, I had to replace a blown 'plastic' exhaust manifold
gasket on the Champion with a steel one.  Things got loud on the way
there.
