The most recent episode was when I held my hand up to high at a farm auction. Now I gotta go find a new forum.

the fun wears off the mowing after a short period of time

Kevin - I've not posted it yet on the Studebaker site, and will hold off if you are interested in it. But FYI, take a good look at the wheels before you jump. They went to hub piloted in '49, and a 3/4 ton probably has 6 lug x 7.25" widowmakers. You thought it was hard to find wheels for your F-4. If that's what it's got it would redefine "hard to find".

OK, I give up. I don't know what you're talking about. What does UGUATES mean? Stu

go ahead and post it stu . by the time i get around to it it'll have sat another 10 years !! i got way too many things now to do honestly .............. but if things were too work out { may have the bird sold again , yet , } it'd sure look cool as the newest yard art don'cha think ? way i see it though the two oldest granddaughters have claimed the 53 and 52 , and i got three more grandkids too go find old rides for so ....................... and no this isn't it fella's just an online pic for you to envision it sitting in my yard . somehow i get the feeling it looks kinda like the old 49 f4 ...........Attachment 25390 oh and it would sit in the yard , as her shed and some of the grandkids toy's have occupied gramp's old truck driveway , so we'd just pick a prime spot in the grass ...... LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!
