    I figured I would let my existence be known to everyone. I have a 1957 Studebaker Broadmoor wagon that is still stock. That's right: four door, Studebaker, wagon. Go ahead and laugh if you want. Chicks dig it though. Really. Okay, maybe not.

    Anyway, Hi.

    Neat Car I can honestly say I've never seen another one like it. Are you gonna drive it the way it is or do some mods or try to restore it to its original greatness. Which it doesn't seem far from anyway. [​IMG]

    If you ever get sick of the car and part it out, the rear bumper is already a great couch. Looks good.

    Thanks everyone. My plans so far are either steelies or astro supremes with wide whitewalls, air ride, and maybe a nice shave. The car is one of 1500, so I am a bit leery to screw it up too bad.

    1530 were made total. I don't think I have seen another one yet. It ought to be an interesting custom.

    Damn...looks just like mine...(except mine is copper and cream)...if I'd known you were looking, you coulda had mine for a whole lot less $$$ than you paid for that one...I have a ton of concept drawings I'll sell ya (taillight mods, headlight mods, graphics, flames and paint schemes, plus wheel combos)...matter of fact...let me add rite here that mine is still for sale...for less than a grand...come get it.

    Oh BTW new guy...the intro could do with a bit more...

    AND it is one of the few existing...won't see yourself coming down the road!!!

    How rusty is yours? I never know when I may need another toy. I got this one because the only place it has rust is in the driver's floorboard. I really wanted a super-solid car to start with. My last Studebaker was like swiss cheese, and that sucked bad.

    My intro could do with a bit more? Umm, okay. I'm 5'4", 22, I enjoy imports and old school rods, long walks in the junkyard, the color blue, and bagels with cream cheese on them. That what you want?
