KnightHex's 1953 Studebaker 2R Series


My truck is being professionally restored back as original as possible. The first three pictures are my truck in process. I had hoped to retore it myself, but that never seemed to be possible. (It is a long story.)

This last picture is pretty close to what my truck is supposed to look like when it is finished. Since the above pictures were posted, a lot of work has been done.  The truck has been painted and reassembled.  I went back to the original color, Maui Blue. I wasn't sure about the color at first, though the name sounds exciting and exotic the sample chip looked kind of drab. But when the paint job was finished it looked great!  The truck is also running again.  I'll get some new pitures on in the next few days.

Nice project truck. Have fun fixing it up. Check out my 1958 Chevrolet Wagon sometime.
