thatz4u Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Build info here..http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/149604-jo-han-studebaker-lark-restorationsorta/. started with this Lark glue bomb....soaked in the Purple Pond...results were less than perfect.....so the restoration took a sharp turn....here are the results... A hard use, unmaintained, well worn Studebaker..paint is shot...bugscreen grille...slightly rusted bumpers...sagging headliner..dirty interior...and of course the all important orange antenna ball for the bigbox store......comments welcome for this second build of 2020...

thatz4u Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 oh yeah the fuzzy dice around the mirror....
Tom Geiger Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Cool project! But as the former owner of a 1963 Lark, that must be an Arizona car! It would be easier to tell you where there wasn’t rust!
Scott8950 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Very cool... I'd like to build a gasser out of one ?

Jantrix Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Man, this looks very cool. The weathering looks very realistic for a dry climate. Well done sir!
