    I started this car three years ago this month. You couldn't get the drivers door open, without a kick. Typical rust everywhere. Hope to be on the road next week as soon as the plates come in and it is insured. IMG_2904.JPG IMG_2900.JPG IMG_2899.JPG

    my pickup lumber carrier, tool hauler, firewood carrier, and general workhorse that I've been driving since the 80s that was filmed in the movie Dig Two Graves a few yrs ago.

    WHY BE ORDINARY ?

    I owned this from 1976 - 1989.
    Used it as a sleeper, show car, trailer puller, and all around hot rod until I sold it at the Chicago Auto Show around 1988 1989.

    As a kid in Orlando in the early 70s, I had what I thought was the coolest car anyone could buy. All my spare earnings and evenings & weekends went into making it faster and fun.
    I can still remember the sounds of the new Pink Floyd, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, and Led Zeppelin music coming in on the lightly buzzing 6v Philco tube radio (I ran 2 6v batteries in the trunk when I converted to 12v) as I hot rodded around and got such a kick out of leaving a loud chirrrp and rubber streaks when I passed someone on the highway.
    I dreaded red lights because my left leg would start trembling as I tried to keep the heavy 3200 lb Zoom clutch from grabbing while the traffic light took it's good ole time .
    I actually broke a few clutch linkages and two T-10s with my rough style, but when you're 19 it's such a kick to bark the tires at speed when you pass the slow ppl. :)
    It was a great time to be a 19 yr old gearhead with a good speed shop nearby, good driveway fixing weather, and other hotrodders everywhere.. :)

    Here is my 50 studebaker I sold a few years ago. It was a fun car. I'm a fan of studebakers, maybe I'll get another one day.... image_6.jpeg image_7.jpeg image_29.jpeg image_31.jpeg

    Here's my Stude that I sold in 2013. I had a lot of fun over the 25 years I owned it. I wonder where it is now and if whoever owns it is having as much fun as I had with it. Bill stude.jpg

    A friends pickup. Sold a few years back.
    Had a 3" exhaust system behind a big Chevy. Noisy doesn't even come close. We had to wear ear plugs on this trip from L.A. to Famoso (Bakersfield).
