Glad to know another Stude Avanti is here.
My friend, forum member Smitty City has been working on a graphic representation for the owners of an unusual 1948 GMC Canopy Express from the...
Algom56: Thanks for the information of setting it and leaving it. That's what we will do also, along the lines of Rich B suggestion, unless...
Rich B: That is more in line with what I'm thinking, yours is a simpler solution. My hat is off to you.
Yes, that would put the capillary thermostat underneath the seat. Would prefer all AC/Heat controls to be together, in the header panel above the...
I left a message there a while back with their tech system, never heard from them. Spoke with sales, they were not tech oriented. Sent an email...
We have installed a Gen II Mini, 66005-VUX-A, behind the seat of a 1933 Ford three window coupe. Controls are 4 knob, Gen II Streamilne Panel,...
I am considering putting "Big and littles" on my Studebaker chassis because of Studebaker's strong performance heritage. In bench racing with my...
My problem also. I have hidden the side pipes by cutting out just behind the rockers in my Studebaker, so must be held fairly rigid. I too must...
Where is the best location for flex joints for a set of side pipes. My side pipes have silicone bushings for mounts, but are semi rigid....
It looks as though Flatt and Scruggs were involved. Tires-- Flatt, Pin Stripping of flames---Scruggy Checked out pictures of your ride, when...
If you are humming down the road, and the alternator begins to sing, does the banjo rear end play along?
Any idea of what year/model? Looking for something near 22.5" from center to center on the inner pivots.
Thanks to everyone for the input. Yes, it is front steer. Thinking now fabricating a narrowed Mustang II rack.
Has anyone used an Opel Gt steering rack? It looks about the right length for my Studebaker. I'm curious if it is adequate strength wise, as my...
Clay, thanks so much for the link. Will look over carefully. Pleasantly surprised.
Thanks for the link, Roughneck424. I was there earlier, it appears to have only the single terminal housings, I'm looking for a dual terminal...
Cosmo is right. I'm going to need about 10 of these connectors, they appear to match the VDO lamp sockets, the one on the left. [IMG]
I have need of a source for the single female connector with two terminals that mates with the two prong brake switch from GM from the 60's...
Several people have already installed hydroboost on their brakes. Perhaps someone has already encountered this. I need an adjustable pushrod...
I have found that there are two hydroboost models in the Astro vans, one with a relief, and one without. I have no idea whch one to get or why.
Since installing my motor, I no longer have room for a vacuum brake booster, and am going to install a hydroboost. I was looking at the Bendix...
I understand that the inner tie rods on a rack and pinion should intersect with the line between the upper and lower A-arm pivots. To fit my...
I'm helping a friend with an Autometer volt gauge that is reading inaccurately, it is several volts off. It has been off since he received the...
That would be probably be around 176 F. Thanks for that information, that's some information I can use. As it was from the early '60's, it...
Sorry, no, from near Dayton/Springfield, Ohio Years ago, I contacted Molded Fiberglass in Ashtabula because they had made the body for...
Hmmm, my old Studebaker is/was originally fiberglass, so I shouldn't do anything with it?
Is the 2" to a header or exhaust pipe? Also, if it's 3/4" from exhaust to heat shied, how far from heat shield to fiberglass? Thanks for...
I just installed some headers, and they are extremely close to the fiberglass body. Is there a rule of thumb how close headers can be to...
Dave, thanks for the Centech idea. It was good to see you at the show in October in New Carlisle. This may be going in the Studebaker Avanti....
