Projects 1950 Studebaker gasser

I got the 8 3/4 housing straightened and powder coated.

 

Nice build, I like seeing people doing cars other than Ford or Chevy. Good luck with it.

 

I was wondering who scored that car! Good for you, bad for me! That will teach me to think about something too long... LOL. I saw your car listed on C.L. long ago. I recognized it from the flame job. It looks like you had the same idea as me as how to build it, but you actually have the skills as well. Good luck and congrats on one nice car.

 

bestoutta3 I worked with the gentleman quite a bit to finally get it. Got lucky finding a fiberglass front clip and have been lucky with the build by having good friends to help with it and give me great ideas on direction of the build.

 

Question for you guys. I am looking for a idea for pedals and brake/ hyd clutch unit what are some recommendations. I was thinking about using the stock pedals but not to sure about the response on the clutch pedal.

 

Nice build and nice to see you went with the 2x4 setup.

 

Be home Friday. After being U/W for 4 months I am ready to get some work done on the Stude. I ordered the material to do a new trans cross member, My rear housing should be done. I ordered a new 8 3/4 nodular center section and plan on getting my gears set up. Hope to paint the frame and get more work done on it.

 

Nice build, great work.....and a pretty cool choice of car! HRD

 

Kugel makes a nice package unit. I bought one for my 33 Chevy 3w coupe that Gambino has been helping me with.

Nice Studie! I have some friends that would probably love to have that glass front end.

 

Damn that's a cool looking Stude. Got any othe pics of it?

 

I don't have any more on this I- Pad lots more on the Southern Gassers site and their face book page. Link to web site below.

 

Cool change of pace seeing a Studebaker being built a a gasser. That body style looks great to me with a nose high stance. Great work so far. Can't wait to see it on the road/track.

 

Took the rear axle over to my buddy "Kmember" here on the HAMB. Told him to have fun with it. He did.

 

That is sick! Very nice!

 

It's gonna be an awesome gasser!!!!!

It reminds me that sometimes ago I had drawn a Studegasser, maybe you'll like it?

 

Damn thats cool frogz

 

Well I got the frame painted and rear axle is done with exception of backing plates.

Hoping to get the backing plates and make the bushings for my leaf springs today. If I can I am hoping to mount up the rear axle tonight or tomorrow.

 

I'm the Landry of "Landry and Gross" Bodacious gasser. email me and I can send you all kinds of pics. Some at Southern Gassers on Facebook. By the way we do have a fiberglass hood.

 

Lookin' good. Nice to run into you last week...

 

You too. I plan on making it over again this week.

 

That rearend is crazy....love it !

 

Damn ran into a problem. had my fuel cell set up to mount under the floor in the trunk but it blocks the rear axle. damn now I got to change how I am mounting the fuel cell. it is too cool to hide.

 

Some reason pic didn't attach. Try this again.

 

Well started putting front end together. I will have to pull the radius rods back off for painting. Need to make a new panhard bar, mount backing plates and brakes then I will be able to sit her on all four wheels. I am really happy with how its looking so far.

 

Well I got the engine sat in place. First time its been in the frame, been using a mockup block until now.
