Hey guys, did Studebaker use solid rims in the 20's/30's?  I was down in the
southern-ish end of Oregon today, hunting with a buddy of mine.  As we were

above we spied the engine cowl of an old car.  Eagerly ...

My grandad told me that earlier this week he was delivering a load of
sand to a job site in the '51 2R16 Dump Truck I won in the raffle and

Gentlemen,
I followed some of your earlier advice regarding the overheating

Someone posted a part number, I didn't save it (I know, this is the

thanks,

something about Studebakers?  Near Athens, GA.
