I still don't understand why people throw these cars into a barn and don't do anything to them for decades. Now after rotting away for 30+ years they want to bring it back out and restore it. Had they put the car in a garage and monthly started the car and/or washed it, pumped up the tires, etc., the car would still be flawless. I have a 2019 Golf R that I bought brand new in 2019. It's my play car so it doesn't see rain. Once a month I wax and detail it out and after 3 years with only 1000 miles, the car looks better than it did when I bought it. The battery is on a tender so it's fully charged. When I do drive it, I warm it up slowly and try to drive it at least 10 miles so everything stays lubed. If you are going to park it and do nothing to it for 50 years, then just sell the car...get rid of it.
Have you ever did a 1992 svx before?
@@pokeman8030 6
It has that locking gas cap so the mice couldn't get in the gas tank because they ain't got no octane rating to begin with...
For the engine question. I would put an electric motor with around 400hp and around the same number of pound-feet of torque. Reinforced suspension, and around 90kWh battery pack. perfect for some fun and weekend rides.
First and worst, when you get the new brake drum you will find that the hub is permanently attached. The drum is supposed to be removed by taking off the nut in the center and using a special heavy duty puller designed for this type of brake. This error is not entirely your fault as the wheels on the LEFT side of the car are supposed to have left hand threaded studs. Somehow, the brake drums were installed incorrectly. If the new drum you ordered has right hand threads install it with the correct lug nuts. To make a 100% correct repair replace the remaining left hand wheel studs in the front hub with right hand threaded studs and nuts. This type of wheel stud arrangement was discontinued in later model years and the car will operate with all right hand threaded lugs. Since you have broken all of the wheel studs you must remove them from the hub and mount the puller with 1/2 inch bolts. The hub mounts to the axle shaft with a tapered fit and a key and requires much force to remove. As to the "radiator" under the front seat, that is actually the heater core. You will find the blower fan inside the right front fender. This is normally connected to the heater core box by a 4" flexible hose. This was probably removed by whoever removed the engine. There were also water hoses which connected the heater core to the engine cooling system. What engine to put in the car depends on whether you wish to do a complete restoration or make the car more dependable for every day driving. A restoration would require the original engine be put back in the car. Many Studebakers have had Chevrolet engines installed. This is quite easy as Studebaker used Chevrolet engines in 1965 and 1966. You can use factory original components such as engine mounts, transmissions, exhaust systems, radiators Etc for 1965 and 1966 model cars to install a Chevrolet engine in nearly any Studebaker built after 1951 without having to make major changes to the chassis or body. For further information contact the Studebaker Drivers Club.
Thank you, this is a lot of GREAT info! Much appreciated!!
@@WDDetailing .....G'day,
for any vehicle, contact the associated club (if possible).
Cheers with appreciation,

For old chrome I use 0000 wire wool. It removes the rust and polishes the chrome with no scratches.
This is a great response.
Wow, now I know!! 😊👍
In case everyone else hasn’t told you already, that “radiator” under the seat is part of the “Climatizer”. That’s the main heater core for the cabin. There should be another small core up under the dash for the defrost and the blower assembly is behind the passenger side front wheel. The little “doors” on the front fenders lets fresh air into the heater or directly into the cabin.
I'd like to add that the water valve to regulate the amount of hot water going to the heater core is under the hood on the fire wall about where the glovebox is.
Interesting! My (nearly identical) 1955 coupe didn't have the "Climatizer" option, apparently. Mine has an after market heater core that bolts to the inside of the firewall. I wonder if the Climatizer heaters were limited to the hardtops? Does anybody know?
I've sure seen similar under-seat heaters. My London Taxi has a similar sort of heater - under the passenger seat in the back! (No comforts for the poor sap driving the taxi! )
@@tedpreston4155 Climatizers we’re available from 1939 on. They weren’t standard equipment though so many cars were produced with heaters like yours.
Studebaker engineers were pretty sharp, locating the Climatizer under the seat. Even heat front and back and for Southern cars that did not need a heater, all the cars came with a small defrost under the dash.
I've great respect for a person who owns up to their mistakes and takes responsibility for them. You're a good man and an example for others.
This brings some great memories to this 83 year old gear head. As a teeager my girlfriend's father owned a Studebaker very similar to this one. He allowed me to use it for dates with his daughter. He even asked me to teach his wife to drive in this car. Some memories never die.
I think the reaction alone puts this video in the top 5. Nothing like seeing an old man relive memories and become a child again. You know he's gonna have the biggest smile on his face when he can take it out driving for the first time. Great job fellas!
I teared up watching him!
I had the wagon version of this while I was in the Army in ’62. That radiator under the seat was the heater. I was too young to fix it and had many very cold trips back to Fort Bragg. Thank you for the great memories.
That was my first guess heater core
Owning your mistake speaks volumes of your character. The world needs more people like you guys.
" Owning your mistake speaks volumes of your character. "
Speaks volumes about Putin
Me too
My lord...this one got to me. Watching his reaction to the car after it was cleaned up brought tears to my eyes. You guys are special...smart with kind hearts. Your parents must be proud.
Excellent life lessons...you make a mistake, you own up to it and make it right for the customer...this is how we learn and couldn't be more proud to support you and this channel
You guys are the best!!!
Yeah, the next time he gets a Studebaker out of a container< he'll know exactly what to do!
Couldnt think of a better person to tackle this car. Great job buddy!! The look on his face at the end was priceless!

My dad had a 1955 Studebaker President Speedster. The Speedsters were easily identified by a circular medallion on the side trim just behind the door opening. There were only 15,000 of these made and they were intended to be owned by the dealers themselves. It cost my dad $3800. It had a tri-tone paint scheme of a white top, Pimlico gray hood, fender tops and deck lid, and Congo ivory lower sides. The seats were upholstered in Congo ivory leather. The front bench seat had an asymmetric back where the driver's portion was approximately 1/3 of the whole. The reason for this was to make it easier for passengers to enter the rear seating from the curb since this car was a two-door coupe. The carpeting was red horse hair. The inside door panels were also leather, this time in Pimlico gray. I believe the headliner was white leather. All of the leather interior was cross stitched in a diamond pattern. The instrument panel was made of machine turned aluminum and supported an array of Stewart Warner gauges with a tachometer. The speedometer ranged up to 160 MPH. The engine was basically a Cadillac engine with smaller bores in the cylinders to give a displacement of 289 cubic inches. It was topped off with a Rochester 4-BBL carburetor. The automatic transmission was a Borg Warner 3 SPD of the same type as used in the Mark X Jaguar sedan. This model had more chrome and stainless steel trim than any of the line. My dad's car had the optional stainless steel wire wheel covers.
Don't be so hard on yourself, it could have happened to anyone, after all, how often does anybody work on a studebaker.The fact that you admitted your mistake and made the customer aware of it and made it right is what matters most, this is another reason why I subscribe to your channel.Your respectful, you don't use foul language,and you always do a fantastic job.You and your family can be proud of the work you do.Continued success my friend.
What a beautiful reaction from the owner I hope his wife was well enough to see it Oh the memories they must have Great job gentlemen
The mistake is so minor compared to the reaction and emotion you were able to give that man. It sucks because if that lug issue didn't happen it would have been a perfect job! Look at it this way, how much would it have cost you to go to a class and be taught what you now know going forward? Great job guys! Really enjoyed the step by step process. Gave it a major like!
My family had a 1954 Studebaker Champion 2-door sedan (maroon over a cream white) that we bought new. My mom and I on a Easter weekend in 1956 totaled it in Vinita, OK. I still have the 3-legged pop-out rear arm rest (we had left it at home for the trip). We had owned a 1948 Studebaker Landcruiser, a 1951 V-8 Landcruiser, a 1952 Champion 2-dr hardtop, and the 1954 Champion 2-dr sedan. Fond memories.
Watching the owners reaction was truly heartwarming! You guys should be commended! When I was a kid during the early to mid 60's, my parents had a 57 Ford Fairlane Custom sedan !! We moved to L.A. in 60 and kept the Ford but my Mom got a 63 T-Bird that had been Repo'd, so she got a good deal!! But in 65, we moved back to Ohio, sold the T-Bird, and drove the Ford home! When I was a Junior in High School, I worked part time for a Buick dealer which is where I got my first car which a customer traded in on a new Buick. That was a 67 Olds Cutlass convertible and I LOVED it, and wish I still owned it!!!
On the wheel studs, first try drilling a hole in the center of the bolt. The bit should bind and spin the bolt out. If that doesn’t work try a self tapping bolt and that will definitely bind and give you something to use to turn the bolt. Hope that helps.
Loved this, what a beauty! I owned a Studebaker Lark, pink no less, when I was 19 - I'm now 81. This brought back memories!!!!
His reaction is what it's all about life is short when your able to put a reaction on a person like you did that's a awsome blessed moment ❤
In 1955 my parents brought me home from the hospital in their 1952 Studebaker.
Because my Mom worked for Western airlines they flew back east a few times when they went to pick up a new car and then drove it back to California.
I have a picture of my Mom sitting on the front fender of the Studebaker on their trip back home.
Wow. Incredible video and the best you've made thus far. Excellent work on every part of the car. Also, true professionalism when owning your mistake. I'm proud of you guys and the work you do.
RAYMOND LOWRYS DESIGN IS TIMELESS ,SUCH A LOVELY AUTOMOBILE
Dad loved Studebaker, and we had three growing up, 53 Champion 6, 53 Commander V8, and 56 Golden Hawk.
I learned to drive on the '53 Commander V/8, three on the tree. Dad let me put 3in lowering blocks and spun aluminum lake hub caps and dual glass packs on her. That Loewy Coupe design was way ahead of its time. Our last was a '56 Golden Hawk. A Muscle Car before the Muscle Cars. I was king of the Pack in '58. Ahh the memories. Keep 'em alive.
14:14...Back in the day it was a Studillac. The 331-cubic-inch Cadillac Rocket OHV V/8 was the Kat's PG's. Today the Chevy LS is probably the engine of choice.
More great storytelling guys. You’ve really grown into more than just a detailing channel. I still wish I could find these old cars like you guys do.
They are finding such interesting classics.
@@joycerichardson1810 So true! Wish I had their pipeline of sweet rides!
I always like to see the before/after shots of the car. Also the owner’s reactions.
You asked about cars our parents had owned. My parents had some nice cars when I was a little boy-Austin-Healey 3000, ‘65 Thunderbird. About 1970 my parents bought a ‘65 Mustang. I fell in love with the car the moment I saw it. I drove it some in high school and college in the 1980s. My parents kept it for me while I was in grad school and getting established. I was finally able to pick it up when my father passed away about 10 years ago and haul it a couple of states away. It needed work. My mother was able to come to visit and see it running; she got to ride in it one last time. She passed about seven years ago. Since that time I have gotten it about 95% restored. It’s won trophies in car shows. I’ve driven it in parades. I often wish I could show it to my parents.
Austin-Healey 3000s are my favorite!!! Such a great car and a good motor. They fetch a terrific price now.
Joyce Richardson: My wife has remarked that she wishes my dad had kept the Austin-Healey instead of the Mustang. Don't get me wrong; she likes the Mustang, too. But she thinks the AH would be a lot of fun to tool around in.
The owner's reaction was EVERYTHING!!!!
The love this man had for this car and how much he wants his wife to see it is so sweet. I hope his wife is ok. He is a real sweetheart. You guys did great.
Wow... the segment where a valuable lesson was learned with left hand threaded lug nuts really hit home for me! When I was 18, I bought a 1950 Oldsmobile which had the same issue, and I didn't know that this was really common back in the 50s. Of course I was using a 4-way lug wrench, and being-- as my Dad used to say, "strong as an ox, and almost as smart as one"-- I didn't break any of the studs, but I sure twisted the lug wrench almost all the way around! Luckily my Dad came out to check on me (hearing me cursing loudly) and explained about left hand threads! Man, those were some tight lugs!
I don't think Chrysler figured out that everybody else's left wheels were NOT falling off until sometime in the mid-60s. My '66 Dodge van had left-hand threads on one side or the other. I don't remember which.
It was common knowledge back then.....
I am in awe!
Great job!
My dad had a '71 Chevelle station wagon from '86-'92. I LOVED that car. He was the second owner and we lost track of it 3 owners later. After 15 years of searching, I have found his old car sitting in Kentucky. I'm in the process of buying it back, once I work out how to ship it.
That radiator looking thing is and underseat heater Studebaker and Packard used them as optional equipment - other companies used them too.
Hi, really appreciate your videos
My dad, when he retired he bought a black studebaker champion (a automatic with the gears select buttons situated on the dashboard, righthand side of the steering wheel
Every weekend on Sunday, it was my job to detail clean that car
A lot of chrome that had to shine,rubber floor mats and tyres were polished with shoe polish, it shined
Oh it came with a standard car radio, but the previous owner had a seven single record player installed below the radio attached to the dashboard
Oh it was a beautiful car, it really turned heads, it was such a pleasure doing the detail on that car, that was 52 years ago
Oh and my brother had a Studebaker detona and the Studebaker lark was a racing stock car
Ja when my father passed on, they sold all the cars, yes I did get to take the champion, for a quick spin around the block
Really good cars, now at my age 66, I would like to have one of them as a project car
Love the content brother
I know it came with a straight 6. But a 289 like the Studebaker Hawk had would go right in there. Put a period Paxton centrifugal supercharger on it and put an overdrive behind that 3 speed you'd have a really cool period sleeper.
That's a great idea!!
It´s always nice to see one of this jewels come back to life; I saw them when I was a kid on the late fifties and it was a pleasure!
I enjoyed this video so much!
Always looking for your videos you guys do great jobs on old cars keep it going
YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE MEMORIES RUNNING THROUGHT HIS HEAD.. PRICELESS
My Grandma had a Studebaker Silver Hawk. Even as a young boy I knew it was an awesome car! I'm 66 now...
Mistakes or no mistakes, you guys are super!
I love these videos!I'm 65 and south African and my dad was a backyard macanic and I grew up with a Hudson hornet 1950s .I loved my dad's Hudson and he sold it and bought a Pontiac ..amazing memories.
What a nice Man. So grateful. I’m glad you included this Man in your video. Ten thousand thumbs up!
Outstanding job folks!!! Old man remember the old times and your wife!!! Really you are making crying!!! God blessed you !!!
Fantastic job! The owner was moved and grateful ❣️💕‼️
That was an amazing transformation. Great job, guys!
Wow, super cool find.👍
This is like a very enjoyable rabbit hole, i started with Matts then went to Rooby Layton and now yours, man I'm really digging your content,
That was a beautiful reaction great job on the vehicle. ✌️
My Grandmother had a 1957 Studebaker Silver Hawk. I was 6 or 7 years old. I'm 67 now. I remember that awesome car very well!
You are really good 👍 never seen such a beautiful work done by you and you guys very honest and you look like working for your own cars
Keep the good work ❤🎉🎉
Good luck
My mother had a black on black convertible when I was about 9 or 10. Great memories of sitting on top of the back seat and watching "The 7 Faces of Dr Loo" at the Drive-in.
When I a kid, my folks bought a brand new 1955 Studebaker President Speedster. Green lower body, yellow upper body and green roof. It was awesome! Heads turned wherever we went.
When I think of the automobiles that my parents drove, my first memories are of the 1957 Oldsmobile 98 and 1961 Chevrolet Bel; Air. Later, we had a 1966 Oldsmobile Jetstar 88 and a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air. During the early 1970s, we had a 1969 Chevrolet C20 with Sun Way Pickup Camper and a 1971 Buick Sportwagon while later in the decade we would have a 1979 Toyota Corona LE Liftback and a 1973 Toyota Corolla 1200. When I left for college in 1978, the Corolla was replaced by a brand new Plymouth Horizon four door liftback. The 1973 Corolla was the victim of severe rust and my mother called me in 1985 to accompany her to pick out her new Oldsmobile. She told me that she wanted the model closest to what her 1966 Jetstar 88 had been in size and style. She decided on the 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham Luxury Sedan with premium leather interior and every option with the exception of the moonroof, diesel motor, and firemist paint -- it was such a unique request, that our dealer had to special order -- twelve weeks later, on April 21, 1985, the car was delivered to us and it immediately went to Ziebart for a full protection package that would be maintained for more than 20 years -- my mother had place my name on the title beside hers all those year ago so when she passed in 2000, the car passed to me and I still own that car.
The key on the gas cap is to prevent fuel theft.
I am writing to you from Mexico, where plunder is an everyday occurrence. For example, if you leave your car in a parking lot, they will surely take away a few liters of gasoline that your meter will not detect, so you will not notice when you take it out of the parking lot.
Many brands came to the market with keys on the gas tank caps. Even if your car did not have a factory key cap, they would sell them separately. You know, the eternal battle against thieves...
Greetings!! I love your channel!!
Hi WD,, greetings and congrautlations of share your video,,,
I take a seat,,, For see your great aventure in this AMAZING STUDEBAKER,,,
Like other videos realy fun,,, greetings of your friend Oscar de Playa del Carmen Q R México,,,
BTW....don't worry about breaking things like where studs. This is how you learn. You are honest and hard working with your customers needs at heart.
One of my dream cars right here! Absolutely love Studebakers! Hope to own one someday :)
This car is a 1955/57 Studebaker Commander. Trading in a '52 Kaiser, my dad bought a 1954 Silver Hawk. It came stock with a V-8. He drove it for 2 years and trader it for a '56 Hudson Hornet. A sailor bought the Studebaker and pushed it too hard. He not only blew the engine, but part of the engine came out thru the hood,
The locking gas cap was added by the owner. The seat belts were also added by the owner as prior to the early 60's, American cars did not come equipped with seat belts. I added seat belt to our "60 Rambler Ambassador.
Excellent job! My 74' Vette could use your tender loving care. Keep up your great work..
Very cool and professional work... 💐 💐 💐 💐
I hope there will be a second part about repairing the motor and restarting the car. 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹
You are amazing precious people. Not many caring people like you these days! 🎉
Just curious if new brake drum, assembly, & lug nuts worked out ok. Great work, and kudos on your honesty!
The heater core on the passenger floor is your floor heat. They work really well..
I can't wait to see it move 😊
Good way to handle a mistake....you were 100% honest.
Beautiful car, glad to see it preserved, and it didn't turn to complete rust bucket. Nice job.
good job guys.very nice.always
WHEN I WAS 18 I BUGHT ONE OF THESE,SAME COLOR EXACTLY ,MIGHT HAVE BEEN THIS ONE .GREAT CAR ,TEADED IT FOR A VETTE ,IM 85 NOW..GREETINGS FROM THE PHILIPPINES
Anther great video!
Thanks!
As for my memories of what my folks drove. My folks owned a lot of cars over the years. 1964 Cadillac Sedan Deville with Fire mist saddle poly coat exterior paint color. 1958 Buick Special Turquoise and white exterior color. Later on Dad drove a 1978 Mercury Cougar White exterior with Red/White interior. My dad would wheel and deal for cars never buy new. The 64 Caddie he paid 200.00 for it. Lots of memories of riding in those cars and a few others the folks owned. Great job on this old studebaker.
My Parents drove a 1957 Chevy, then a 1965 Oldsmobile wagon. All eight of us would pile in the wagon, which had a third seat that faced backwards, and go see some movies at the Drive-In. We would make popcorn on the stove and put it in paper grocery bags and brew a large jug of ice tea. What fun!
Well done guys
Love the detailing & the enthusiasm
Keep it up & best of luck ❤
Absolutely beautiful. I have a 1955 President coupe, virtually identical but for having a V8 and B pillars and flip out rear windows. Love what you are doing.
Love watching you guys. Thanks.
My dad bought a 1960 Hawk 2 door. it was black with red interior. My 3 brothers and I were crammed in the back on long trips. Great lines and colour.
I want to applaud you guys UA-cam fantastic work
I was 6 years old and my Dad showed up in Tuskeegee, Ok. with a beauitful creamy yellow and white Studebaker...it was beautiful...when i saw this car in the trailor i recognized it immediately. I think ours was fourdoor though. 😊
I love the two front fender rear view mirrors.
Thank you guys for loving what you do to beautiful old
Hey look bro! It’s not a serious problem! You owned up and the key here is you recognised that you made a mistake!! That alone is a noble part of your mindset. That deserves recognition and praise!!
Well done guys another awesome video!!!
I commend you for doing such honest work and doing right by your customer.
Exellent workmanship gents!
The first car that dad had that I can remember was a 1950 Hudson pacemaker! Dad loved his Hudsons!
I was born in 52, first car I remember was a Nash American Station Wagon. It was a used vehicle. So I guess it was early to mid 50's. House was in the same development I live in today, just around the corner of the block. We moved from there to here in 58. Parents passed and I bought this one! At the time a family of 3 kids, in a 900 sq. ft. home this one only 1500 but a big jump in those days. Dad sold and built homes at the time. I remember it was a standard (3 on the tree in hindsight), as Mom had a lot of trouble at the stop light on Division Street/ 6th street - top of a hill. So much so, that one day she left it, with us in it, walked into school (it was on that corner) called Dad so he could get it around the corner. So I guess I have always been a "car guy". Family seems to remember that even in my single digits I knew what the make of most cars were, and even pretty good at the models. Can remember most all of the vehicles in our family and the neighbors of our neighborhood.
Really enjoy your videos. Very satisfying.
My Dad had a 1957 STUDEBAKER COMMANDER. He loved that car and so did I.
Your best videos are the ones where we can see the owners before and after.
Outstanding!
Hi from France,very nice job as usual ,Fievel didn't want to be evicted from its new home !
Like always you guys always do an awesome job
My dad and grandfather drove an 81 Buick Park Ave and a Pontiac Bonneville respectively. I enjoyed driving either one of those cars back and forth during high school. Such great memories.
That guy's reaction was priceless. He looked so happy to see something he thought was lost, looks like a kid in front of his dream car.
I'm starting to find true appreciation for the people behind the scenes who create these songs that will only be heard in random youtube videos. I mean those people CREATED these songs and we listen to them all the time lol!
At one time keyed gas cap were quite common to prevent someone siphoning out your gas. Now the entire filler access door is often locked from inside the car, preventing casual theft of gas.
It came during the 70s gas shortages during the Carter administration .people were getting desperate and could only get gas on certain days
Chuck flashed back to how much fun he and his wife had in that car. 🥺
Great cleanup guys
Definitely one of my top 5 favorites you guys have done so far. 👍👊
