Didn’t even rip it

Super cool. Old Studebaker family here.. One dear bud in our club bought one before he got drafted for Nam. He got back and babied it for years. On the way home from a club meeting, he was hit and the car was in bad shape. It may still be in his barn covered up. That was its condition last I saw it. Enjoy yourself. Very lucky to drive that !

Some serious machinery Nice footage 😆

1:39 that gorgeous black elco <3

A. Bunch of slow ass garbage what a joke

Looks like a bunch of 10 year old's dreams.

Correct , Stud a Baker , but if it’s owned by a Girl , it’s a Stud a Bakster

Prettiest thing at the Car Show ? A Pinto , dipped in Kandy Paint , with 12 Hp Briggs & Stratton , in the sunshine !

Beauties!👏👏🔥❤

Big blower hats on older muscle cars needs to stop. Looks good on new stuff. Some really nice cars.

Just sell the channel, sir, how much does it cost?

You know there's itchy right foots in that line up.. Beautiful cars 💜

Florida going hard. Great to see this. Very nice cars. And a lot of them. I've been around hot rods since I was a little kid. I've had a few good ones that I built myself on a very low budget which made it all the more fun when I would go out and race whoever I could . My first car going back to 1980. Was a 66 Chevelle original 283 car. Bought it when I was 14 years old and put every penny I had into it for 2 years until I got my driver's license. The end result was a 396 375HP 4 bolt main . Crane Cam ,a tweaked Quadrajet, Turbo 400 with a 3500 rpm stall, 373 12 bolt GM rear. Traction bars. And a set of Cheetah Slicks. Lmfao. The car was in red oxide primer, and sounded evil. And looked like it sounded. And believe it or not. It ran even better. My first race was on the street . Quarter mile. Against a really beautiful 67 Chevelle with a 454 LS6 big dollar motor with all the bells and whistles. Before we raced him and his buddy were looking at my car and laughing and joking about it and they were trying to get me to run for money. I didn't think I had a chance Against this guy's car. So I said no. But if you wanna run. Let's go have some fun. I pulled out of the burger King and they followed me. I was with 2 of my friends who just happened to be the best mechanics around and earlier in the day they both spent like 3 hours fine tuning my car and we put moth balls in the fuel tank ( napar) I don't know exactly what they did. But my car was running like I couldn't believe. And it was amazing. Anyway. We lined up to race. And I beat that LS6 by about 3 car lengths and he threw a spun a rod bearing trying to catch me. Man were they pissed. Time for me to put another car together and have some fun.

Awesome stuff promstreet is alive

Now that's a lot of blowers👍👍👍

I like the little Chevy Chevette that thing is badass

Can you tell us more about the engine? Is this from an R2 or something else?

This Studebaker is awesome. It is one of these that got me into Studebakers. In 1976 a good friend had the same car with a 390 Caddy with a blower. Then later he opted superchargers and that car was nuts. Thank you for the post and bringing back memories.

This is an amazing engineering job! Work of art!

I guess you had to be there. There is no understandable narration to this video. Beautiful cars tho.

Thanks, I remember these…… (* hopefully)

Interestingly, more than a few Super Larks around N Indiana: a 1964 (*?) Grad of my WOLF LAKE HS( Noble CTY) a pleated to have one, at least a 4 SOD/ Dual EXH(??)….Anyways, when these & Avanti came out**: a. Big Deal……

Wolf Trap?

..... Interesting ... I have never seen exhaust pipes routed in front of the front tires, like on the blue Avanti.....

Thanks.. oddly, the “ Studebakers, & Avanti (1962-3)” just as Chutzpah/exciting now as when they came out (*/& to BONNEVILLE)….I was a Sophomore In HSCHOOL (* N Indiana).. Of course Superbirds(;1970:Plymouths) had that excitement , too… I seen Superbird +440/6 BBL , in Soring 1970 , Sreets of Downtown Lafayette Indiana, & a little to *long & Dramatic *for Us ( though : getting a 70:Coronet 500/383/ loaded , as first new Car buy!)…………

I’ve always wanted a supercharged 4sp one. Growing up they were always beautiful ! What a wonderful sport car !

Make mine with a Tesla plaid power train.

One here in my town equipped with a Latham Axial Flow Super Charger. VERY FAST!

😯😮😲😍🤩💖👍‼️

Nice 1963 R2 with a 4 speed. Overall looks good, but the replacement carpet should be a SALT and PEPPER black with elk mixed. Correct carpet is available as I recently replaced some new with the correct SALT and PEPPER pattern. small issue but really brings the colors together. The original and the correct replacement carpet consist of 23 individual pieces and well worth the effort to do it right. Also a very early R2 as it still as the 140 MPH Speedometer which was quickly changed to the 160 MPH version. Nice car overall and the best color.

It sure is! It's such a fun car to drive. It runs so good!

What a sweet car!

1964 Studebaker Daytona 2dr hardtop R3 Superlark Bonneville racer this car was featured in the January 1964 hot rod magazine did a speed a speed of 149.98 mph for the flying mile and 150.04 mph for the kilometre trap will easy do 160 mph with a 3.31 diff and 4speed manual car now has a 4.09 Dana 44 twin traction Diff still with the original R3 motor and 4speed T 10 gear box car is own by Nelson Bove who also own other R3 Superlark.

So fun!! Get to the top quicker - 'PromoSM'!!

Super fun day!

If this is the car built by Dick Steinkamp, I had the privilege of riding in the passenger seat where the cameraman was in this video in 2005 at the SDC meet in Spokane. At that time, no AC under the dash. A fun experience.

OH THAT JAG AT 5:52!!
