Flag this garage as inappropriateStudebaker Champion "Stude"
Drivetrain:
Most everything came out of another Studebaker project that had been abandonded. It's powered by a 383 small-block Chevy. OD transmission with custom column-shift. Holley Street Avenger Carb, hooker headers. Custom-made exhaust.
Chassis:
Frame/suspension/brakes are original. Ford 9-inch rear end.
Wheels & Tires:
Basic ;) I need to beef up the tires a bit to get a little more grab for the 383's power!
Body:
Original 1955 paint. Body's in pretty darn good condition. A slight scrape on one side & a little bit of rust...she won't get new paint until my bills are paid!

Interior:
Rebuilt by me. Re-foamed all of the seats and covered. Rebuilt side panels. Just made a custom glitter vinyl headliner for the roof.
Dash and all are stock. Steering wheel is out of a later-model Studebaker Hawk.
This is my first and only car. She's my daily driver. Read more about us at www.GreaseGirl.wordpress.com! I've had her...
