I can't wait to start driving and showing this thing! I stopped to talk to a guy who does restoration of old cars about doing the electrical things, and he said it would be no problem. Fortunately, there is a LOT of Studebaker stuff available online, since there are a lot of people who collect these cars, and the cars themselves are very durable. I've had to replace the engine already in my '97 Toyota RAV-4, so the newer engines(all those plastic parts and aluminum)don't last nearly as long. I think I'm going to go ahead and customize this, rather than just do a factory-stock restoration, since it would be ashame to have a ride like this without a decent sound system, and AM just doesn't cut it anymore, lol! I'm going to stick with stock color, though, since in my head I can already hear Bloo and Cheese debating "HOT ROD FLAMES" vs. "BUNNiiiiieessssss"!
