'48, '49... What's the difference? Not much, but I felt a correction was in order anyway. On today's episode of Dead Studebaker Garage, I take a sledge hammer to the seized drum brakes I gave up on at the end of the first installment. I then proceed with my usual methods of "fixing" the brakes and preparing this old Studebaker to hit the road after two decades in storage. My sincerest thanks to my friend Dave for bringing out his supercharged 1961 Studebaker Hawk (which you may recognize as a previous build project featured on the channel,) schooling me on the inner workings of the '49 Studebaker's overdrive unit, and helping me give this sweet machine a proper test drive.
