A Studebaker drivetrain would also likely be an improvement.

You are not far from the truth ...

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.

Probably doesn’t drive it much - possibly rusted out exhaust from disuse.

Think the wheelcovers worth more on ebay?

I’m not sure there are many cars that wouldn’t be improved by those wheel covers.

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 ...
