Congratulations to my sister, HAMB'er msmazi, for the feature in the current(February 2009) issue of Classic Trucks of her 1950 Studebaker that my dad built for her.
I've only got a few pictures on my computer from it's first outing at out local Goodguys event and I don't have a scanner to scan the article. Maybe she will see this and can post more.
I read that article. It seems that hotrodding runs in the family. Great to see everyone participating. Way cool! RGV
That girl's got some good taste, that's for sure. Any pics of the motor and more of the insides. I don't generally read that mag. but maybe I'll have to see if I can pick up a copy.
Thanks! Glad you guys like the truck and the article. I will try to scan the magazine this weekend and I will post when I can.
Beautiful truck...I love those old studebakers...doesn't take much to make a real head turner outta them...congrats to your sister for the coverage
Congrats! On your feature. Beautiful truck. How is it possible that 3 HAMB trucks are featured in the same issue? Yeah thats my patinad 52 F1 on the cover (I was as surprised as you to see patina on the cover) Since been sold. And my buddy Fordhualers 56 on the cover too. Later,Bill
Nice work. When we had our HAMB breakfast did you know this was happening? If you did you should have bragged it up a bit. Thats really cool!
Everyone go out now and buy as many copies as you possibly can afford before they become hot collectible commodities!
Yeah, I did. Just shy about mentioning it. BUT, since you brought up bragging, it is also in the running for 2008 Street Rodder of the year, and you can vote at http://www.streetrodderweb.com/features/0801sr_turtle_wax_top_100_contenders/index.html
I bought every issue they had at B&N with the Green Truck on the cover.... I figure I should be able to sell them on ebay and retire in a few months.
We'll split a retirement getaway together--gotta wait till it dries up a bit, though, cuz most the fridge boxes are too soggy from the recent rains...
