A Studebaker drivetrain would also likely be an improvement.

A friend of the family and neighbor has a purple with factory semi-gold flames Touring Package PT convertible with a turbo. As far as I know, it has never fundamentally blown up, and he’s had it for years and years. Mind you, I don’t know HOW.

Think the wheelcovers worth more on ebay?

I’d sure put ‘em on a 5 series ...
Went to the Studebaker Museum back in 2000 - If you’re ever in South Bend, it’s pretty cool.

Its on the list, for sure. Indiana has the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg museum, as well, and the Checker Motors museum is only an hour and a half north.

They’re probably worth more than the PT.

And how surprised was I that those wheels pulled a childhood memory out of me ... ah, once mighty Studebaker.

You know I love me a Studebaker... But the PT doesn’t belong in South Bend.

Well, if there’s a crusher that’s not doing anything right now, it should be there ...
