| Another mechanical puzzler, OT | 27 Nov 2006 22:59 GMT | 10 |
A few years back a fellow firefighter stopped off at the station after a weekend on the Colorado river. Had his Chevy engined ski boat on the trailer. Said he hauled it on the 600 mile trip for nothing. Never took it off the trailer. When he tried to start it, it would start and ...

| Setting up driveshaft... | 27 Nov 2006 05:11 GMT | 3 |
So I finally got the car up in the air to hopefully properly determine what I need to do to set my driveshaft up correctly... this is in a '55 coupe with R1, 4-speed, and rear end from a later car. The driveshaft is from a '61 Hawk 4-speed and is 3-1/2" in diameter. I am using ...

| 50 champion convert on e-bay,stude listings,strange bumper | 27 Nov 2006 03:58 GMT | 1 |
Hello: Something does't look right with the front bumper on this car. It extends to far from the front of the car. I'm not a guru on the 50 studes, but I checked in my stude buyers guide, and a 50 convertible has the bumpers flush to the body. He also states the car has a manual

| Toss or save? | 27 Nov 2006 01:45 GMT | 3 |
I was getting out the winter things in the garage this morning, i.e., snow shovels, snow blower, roof rake, etc. and came across a Studebaker rear bumper that I pulled off a'60 Lark 4-dr sedan that was parted out a couple years ago. It has the typical rust belt acne, worst on the ...

A left-nut staion (Air America) ran an ad for a right-nut station (Fox). Shouldn't they cancel each other out and leave just static? Karl

| Hauler needed | 26 Nov 2006 22:57 GMT | 3 |
No I don't need a Studebaker hauled but something else a bit smaller. Thinking about buying a crawler from a fellow in Pensylvania and that is too far for me to drive to load it on my trailer. I need to know some contacts in the area that are reputable so I don't

| ported or manifold vacuum advance for an R1? | 26 Nov 2006 21:48 GMT | 1 |
subject says all... was just experimenting with my car today and it seems to idle smoother and faster on manifold vacuum... I can't get any more advance on the dist (it's already kicking back when I start it) and it seems to like it so well that before it is fully warmed up

| Recruiting younger members | 26 Nov 2006 15:17 GMT | 34 |
In the local stude club that I belong to, many of the members are older. My lady friend and I are in our mid 50's and we are some of the youngest ones in the club. There are a few others in their mid to late 30's, but no one younger than that. Is the situation like that in

| Story of Rose the Daytona | 26 Nov 2006 15:15 GMT | 10 |
I first bought a 60,000 mile, 64 Rose Mist 64 Daytona (aka Rose) in the fall of 2002 at Reedsville. I bought her Thursday afternoon for $2300 and resold it Friday morning for a small profit. The new owner wanted to swap in a R2 and as he drove off I thought that would be the

| 1940 Coupe Values?? | 26 Nov 2006 14:44 GMT | 5 |
When I saw this listing I thought someone had stolen our car. I have one almost identical sitting out in the building except ours runs and drives. Other than the seat cover there isn't much of the interior left. Is there that much demand for coupes that this thing went for so ...

I think the car is a '35ish Ford. Hard to tell though. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3781942818942390946&q=1950s+car&hl=en Matthew
