Studebaker Build

[Southrod]

This is a car we have been on "too" long, lucky the owners patient (although that could be running thin)probably cant be considered Pro touring by most people but it will certainly hold its own against most stuff.

I love watching this build. Great work.

[R.A.D]

what exactly did you do to the roof?

[Southrod]

what exactly did you do to the roof?

I wedge chopped it,the stude roofs always look like they are going uphill,so I took about an 1.5 inches out of the front tapering back to about half inch at the rear and moved the rear glass opening back down so that the glass will now be glued in instead of the ugly big rubber they had.
Shane.

[R.A.D]

thats what i thought went on. i have a 1962 dodge lancer where the roof does something similar and its been bothering me. i might do something like that to it

thanks:thumbsup:

[Southrod]

Final primer on the Stude now,back into the interior and then we can get the body off and i can finish the exhausts etc.this thing is gunna be slick when its painted.
