You have a beautiful (Studebaker) body. Around here all that would be left is from the door handles up.
 
Replaced the driver side floor board.

Replaced the lame '80s Mopar steering column and replaced it with a '65 Wildcat column (no switch, no shifter).

like it

always liked the bullet nose:D

are you going to run one or two masters for the brakes?

l ALWAYS run a dual or as l put on the 30ISH sedan, a front and rear single.

the one thing l learned the hard way( as in hit the wall at the circle track a few times) are brakes are your'e best friend and when ya lose'em, ya ain't driven', yer just along for the ride till she stops (or in my case, crashes and stops upsidedown and on fire:eek:).

just my thoughts, l like to try and help, hate to see something happen to such a beautiful car.

Later :cool:
