I don't know after looking at the first pic where the wheel studs are popping thru the color looks rust-ish..... maybe it's the camera or the patina of the paint....

I went to the machine shop today to check on the progress...... Um, not much progress. I did drop off the Hilborn manifold to get test fitted on the blocked with the heads on. I talked to the Hilborn people yesterday and Andrew suggested the test fitting saying "thats a lot of money to spend on an EFI conversion only to have the intake not fit." John, the proprietor, said next week at the latest for the intake fitting. I told John that i was going to pay him in full.... over the course of 4 years! (same amount of time he has had my 340)

I also snapped a few pics of his garage..... I like going to visit my friend John.

A Studebaker T-cab pickup. That's something you don't see often!

They certainly weren't the prettiest trucks (they look much better with the stepside bed), but they are unique. It looks pretty clean in the pic. What area is it located? If Somerset area, my dad sold a complete T cab to a guy about 10 years ago. It had all NOS parts on it (all cab pieces except floor/firewall, NOS bed, front clip -- everything). I believe it was being built as a Hot Rod though. This one looks pretty stock.
