I love studebakers wish that they still made them ?❤❤❤❤❤❤ but of course they would just look like all the new cookie cutter cars because people just don’t design them they just use computers?!❤😂
Florida native since 1967 and a lot of this information I never knew. I grew up canoeing the head waters of the St. Johns all the way up to the north end of lake Washington. Once in a while we would find large wooden boats long abandoned where it seemed no boat could have gotten.
When I was kid flat woods would stay under water after every storm i can remember Clifton rd south end lake crescent water get up high hundreds of ft from normal bank after hurricane and restaurant at dead lake at end of 2006 it would flood out regular
Im a jones from Daytona dad was from crescent city Georgetown area but kin the mcrae had hiawatha steamboat and smaller boat can't remember its name but it ran for hart line out of palatka ran st John's and ocklawaha river carried mail and other stuff till 1928 29 guess it was pulled up the hart point ship yard till sometime in late 80s was burnt hauled off i don't know
BOUGHT A 1938 4 DR. COMMANDER IN 1963, MOTOR WAS BLOWN NEEDED PAINT TIRES ETC., FOUND A 58 CHAMPION FH ENGINE, FIXED IT ALL UP SOLD IT IN 1969, WAS BUILING A HOUSE. SOLD IT FOR $ 385.00, WISH I HAD IT BACK !
I went to Stetson in the '80s and so for me this is almost unrecognizable, but every one of the pictures is frighteningly overexposed. You should start over and try and salvage that. A lot of these pictures were taken from the advertising sections of either the De Land High School yearbooks, or from Stetson yearbooks. Some of these roads look like dirt roads, even the intersection of US 17 and US 92. That is amazing.
My dad loved Studebakers. He had many of them, but had a brand new 1957 champion and a New 1962 Lark 4dr.I drove the Lark when I got my drivers license in 1967 as my first car. I always wanted a 53 but never could find one that was'nt all rusted out .We had a 59 silver Hawk with a flathead six, which I repainted for him. Would love to see that amazing collection in person but have to many health issues to travel.
The 67-68's have always been my favorite of the Gen1 Camaros. 67's always looked a little cleaner without the extra side markers and I like the vent windows.
I purchased a 1960 Lark from friends in 1965 who moved away. Stick on tree and with TT or twin Traction. Front fenders had tell-tail rust from splashing by front wheels. I tookoff fenders and had a body shop cut rust out and I refinished them. Beautiful leatherette interrior and a flat head 6 cyl. Drove it to 230,000 miles till it rusted apart.
Dam Johnny dad looking good for that age. I'm 62 and I can barely get up after I sit on the ground. Sweet car tell dad to keep it in tune and have fun.
Dustin Martin they really are!! This one has a 371 ci bored .250” oversized, stroked 1/4” a Muncie M21, 10 bolt Chevrolet rear end and soon to have aluminum heads.
Friend of mine had a Hawk with an Avanti 327 V8. Another had a 4 door blue Lark VIII. As a child I saw the early model around town with the airplane grill in 2 or 4 doors. I guess they had used GM motors and parts.
How can you NOT love Stock Eliminator? Big blocks, small blocks, muscle cars, late models, station wagons and anything else practically. Love it! Thanks for the video.
Welcome, your work is great, it is always nice to see old legend breathing again!) And thx for your work! Hmm, I ve always thought that American motorbike society of 50-s/60-s was only about TRUE American bikes, big, heavy HD lowriders, you know. I was wrong...
Arik Taranis Again thanks!! Sad part is I've only rode this bike maybe five times after putting it together. Well, it all depends on who you're talking to. Some people are die hard American bike guys buy real lovers of motorcycles appreciate and love them all. I myself love the Japanese and European bikes over anything American.
