Is that an AMC Eagle next to you?
Yes. one of 2 that was on the Hot rod Power tour 2018 They bought that car a week prior to the tour
Sweet, ahead of its time.
Each serves purpose. When I stated he hates not hauling a load, it’s seriously stiff. Spent the first half of his life with a 16 ft camper and boat. Love it, not a daily.
Drop in a 450 Red, and challenge the Dura maxWell now, Old Paint finally gets to the thread.
It’s only original once.

What a beautiful machine! IMO that's the only one proper wheel design for the old school muscle cars. What is it American Racing?

so it's the good old Ridler! There are so many replicas today, so it's sometimes hard to find out the brand

bringing this thread back. just picked up a 1952 Studebaker, "The Maggot". its an old M class Jr Stock drag racer, built by a guy named Pete Magel, hence the nickname.

I remember a local racer from years ago that had a 50's Studebaker two door wagon. He built his headers from a weld it yourself kit. The car ran a lower stock class & he was successful back in the day. I don't know the engine size. He nicknamed it 'Hammerhead'. I am sure he is not alive today because I was a teenager & he seemed like an old guy to me. I would like to find the car today & bring it back to life. I always liked diversity & Studebaker is about as diverse as you can get.
There is a car show in Branson each year called the 'Orphan Car Show'. Studs, Hudson, Nash & Packards are well represented.
