As a matter of fact, Johnny, I did like those Studebakers. Neighbor had one when I was growing up, about a 1951 or 1952 I think. That was a different car back in those days. Then, when I was about 12 and had the paper route, a guy on my route bought one of those Studebaker Golden Hawks (I think is the proper name) and that was quite a racy car. Also, attending the Modified Sportsman races in Daytona in the early Sixties the Saturday before the 500, I would see a lot of those mid-fifties Studebakers racing due to the advance aero bodies. Quite something to watch. Seems I recall LeeRoy Yarbrough winnin either once or twice in that even in one of those Studebakers.
I already posted on here somewhere, about the true story of two five or six year olds overhearing a conversation between me and another guy about Studebakers. The little boy asked "What is a Studebaker" and the know-it-all Miss Priss promtly responded "it's something they bake Studes in."
I do prefer Studebakers over Toyotas, you can bet on that.

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.
