I can see that whole truck with a tilt bed and used as a retro tow truck! Hell ya! Original resto with the flathead etc probably just update the braking system! Awesome find.

I called this joker to ask about parts for my Studebaker and it took him well over a week to get back to me. When he did call me back he was short and came across like I was wasting his time. I gave him a small list of what I was looking for and again took him well over a week to call me back. When he did call me back I missed his call and returned his call, left a message and he never called me back. Very unprofessional and rude. He’d get his ass handed to him in Idaho!

I live in West Virginia and have the same truck. Mine is a 52 Studebaker 2 R17A. Do you know what the wheelbase is, it should be on the tag in the drivers side footwell. Also, how much for the entire truck as is? Thanks, Nick

Snatch that flathead out and put an old School Hemi in it and put it back on the road... very cool truck...

Better yet put a supercharged 289 Studebaker in! Mmmm🤤

Heck, you could probably just put a battery in it and it would start up and drive. That six cylinder Champ motor is indestructible.

@@jimrudolph1582 I really like the way this truck looks, but sadly I believe something would have to be done, it's just not realistic in todays world to have a what 180hp engine in a what 2 ton truck. I have a 1991 f350 with a 460 big block gas. I have it in a shop getting remanufactured right now. it's getting bored over from 7.5L to 7.7L. The truck is definitely capable and can haul but it's still even slow by todays standards. I have been in new duramaxes and powerstroke diesel trucks, they are much faster and more power than mine. I recon the top speed in this truck is like 60 mph it just wouldnt make any sense to drive it the way it is.

Me lembro quando criança (1965)meu pai tinha um caminhão Studebaker -R17- Difícil fazê-lo funcionar , na manivela. Muito bonito, nunca esqueci.
