Update.. Old Studebaker truck comes to life after 30 years

[mschiffel1000]

nice restoration and good to see this stude doing just what it is supposed to be doing !!!...actually being used as a truck and hauling whatever needs to be hauled !!!

[robert3302]

It's too beautiful to use for hauling stuff.

[MrStonemike]

Excellent! You are to be commended!

[herbienbrian2]

fantastic job! Its great to see that ol' girl get a second chance. She sure shines up nice.

[rustyfordsutube]

That's what I call a "green vehicle". I mean dang, what's more enviromentally responsible than putting old metal back on the road.

[mta798]

hi mate this truck is very nice

[freelancer40]

Looks great, not what I expected for a color but I like it...

[mark16443]

u rebuild the engine in that 2

[DukeNukem65]

Nice job, looks great!

[d4don2006]

Owned a 1952 R half ton back in 1970. Known as the " Mouse House" seemed like every time I opened a door they'd come running out from under the cowl. Great Job! Keep 'em working.

[JAJAJAX]

great work... congrats!

[nextwarrensapp]

This is really cool and its a version of Pimp my Ride but instead its Restore my Old Farm Truck

[2011Topper]

Thanks for posting! Nice to see a previous orphan getting some attention. Also glad your still using it for it's intended purpose, working for a living. I'm working on a Willys pickup that has been sitting for 10 years myself.

[SpooksHill]

shes purdy

[Pentax645]

Very nice job. I'm currently restoring a 53 Studebaker so I can appreciate all the work you put into this truck.

[69Cabeast]

dude that is excellent work that thing looks factory new 5 stars

[themadhacker2]

Glad to see it actually being used after restoration. Too many cars in it's previous state get restored and just sit for eternity in museums.

[toddewadde]

great job on the rebuild !!!!!

[joedrummer2010]

GREAT JOB! There is definitely something to be said about people that put the time and money into old trucks! CHEERS!

[MrPrestonL]

good job, i love to see people give old trucks a 2nd lease on life!

[foughtwolf]

Did they make a dump-truck version of these? My grandfather had one much that same color and body style, but I dont remember much about it, I was very young when he passed away and many portion of my memories of him and his farm vehicles are gone.

[teaser1950]

My highly respects to this people who love this Oldtimers and make its back to liofe again!

BTW, music are so enjoyable ^___^

[muta157]

AWESOME truck. But how do you find parts for a truck so old and a company that has gone out of business decades ago?

[chaa94]

NICE:D!

[Thumper69696]

Beautiful Truck! 

[TheTractorguy140]

5 stars great job on her

[79GMCVANDURA]

AWESOME JOB

[PistolPete2]

Studebaker cars and trucks were so far ahead of their time until

they were not appreciated. There were no better vehicles made.

[getherer2]

OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your labor of love with us.

[Dulein]

I've seen several of your videos. You do nice work.

[SimboSays]

get those danged twigs out the back you'll ruin the paint

[mopar8903]

man i love it when people fix up old thing and use them for what they were ment to do! i have a 1975 jeep cj 5 i dont use it as a trailor queen ! i 4 wheelit hard everyday!

[silentpaintballer]

you should drop that 10 inches and put a 500 big block in it and hot rod it :D

[badlarry2]

That's slick. Very Nice.

[tritty84]

[herbienbrian]

beautiful, I love the fact that its still a work horse and not some trailer queen.

[l1bikr]

Nice Job, I like the truck alot.

[1otviii]

way cool dude, way cool.

[carlosmurphy4u1]

What model is it?

I have a 1950 2R-C2 with Chevy 350, turbo 350, Ford 8".

[wingnut9090]

Was the red or off white/grey the original color? Either way you did a hell of a job. And put it back to work to. Just the way it should be.

[NoExpert76]

It's totally cool that you restored that truck, and even cooler that you're actually using it to haul stuff around. Great video!

[harley1450000]

very nice,put a smile on my face

[mustangfan1995]

[censor48]

[rickster348]

Studebaker Rules!

[ThunderAppeal]

Thats the real definition of recycling.

[cassoa]

Very Nice Truck

[hotwad88]

Really cool, its sad that soo many others will never be driven again, keep up the good work!!!!

[AmandaDelight]

[Stetsonater]

[MooseBaker]

How long did it take to restore, and how many guys?

[AdvancedGentleman]

That is awesome, glad to see it still at work.

[JohnMc52]

It's gorgeous, but why not go back to the original red color? Great Job!!

[Eddie1962150]

Good job. I like it. The only thing is you really should have rebuilt that old flat head. Besides that' Cool. Very cool.

[Titliest07]

High metals content -ZDDP - 1,800ppm - a must

have for older engines - we have 55plus years

engine rebuild service -and valvoline is best

[ChuCk230e]

thats what you use a truck for

[helentindill]

Hi Brad. We have done a similar restoration on a 1949 Studebaker fire truck. Id just like to say Good job. Helen Tindill from UK.

[twistedchuckie69]

great job guys, love the stude !!!

[GrEmLiN76X]

With the background music in this clip I could fall in love with that truck... lol. Great work sir, she's gorgeous.

[tarpsman4life]

great job. looks awsome. this trucks obviously gonna have a good new life.

come to think of it i dunno wat id prefer. restored or unrestored.

[vaccumme]

All of you are true American Craftsman! I hope to have a truck somewhat like this in the near future.

[jstrunck]

Wow! It's hard to believe that is the same '49Stude! You did one heck of a frame up restoration on the Studebaker 2R16 farm truck! Looks like it could give another 30 or 40 years of service with no problems!

Great Vid! I hope to see more!

John S.

[UCHoover]
