Very Cool truck. Hard to fine someone selling an actual driver.This is just fun to drive, we have Clean Title in hand, original Hudson Manufacturer. See all options we know of just above. We are selling for a friend of our so this does not have to run through our dealership, but is here in storage to view, and title is on hand to take with truck. Starts right up every time, no known mechanical issues, we did notice the center carburetor is not hooked up at the moment, but looks like just need fuel line to it and linkage hooked up. Front flip forward hood is fiberglass, rear bed is good stained to match paint job, and rear fender flares are steel. Only damage we notice was a small 3" or so crack in back glass behind driver (no reason to change), minor scratches in paint, may buff out

1952 Henry J Gasser, Drag Car with History.

HISTORY:

This car was built by Dave Torbeck, in Richmond, Indiana. in 1960-62
Back then it was running a 292 CUI SBC 4speed Trans, and Chevy Rearend.
The car was raced on the street and at the Dragstrip. Dave moved from Indiana to Florida, in 1968-69 the Henry made the journey to Florida where it was stored until 1994, it was sold sometime that year. In 2002 the car resurfaced at the Southern Outlaw Drags In Bradenton, Florida. We purchased it summer of 2002, Dave Torbeck, and his son met us at the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green, Ky in 2005 Dave confirmed it was his old car taking pictures with it, and giving us Black and White 8MM Film from the early 60s.

(The photo of the car painted orange is an old picture, that is exactly how it looked when we purchased it.)

1950 Studebaker Champion Starlite Coupe Old School Drag Car, or as more recently suggested a Rat Gasser that can be streetable with a couple add ons like mufflers depending on your state, and a bigger capacity fuel source. At present fuel is supplied by a 3 gallon Moon style tank mounted on the nose in Gasser fashion with cut off valve. A fuel cell mounted in the trunk would be an easy installation and very affordable option. The front suspension is from Speedway Racing and is of a straight tube axle configuration with leaf springs, shocks and disc brakes. Spindles are GM. Steering is also Speedway with a Vega steering box non power. Steering wheel is Moon removable.

Power is provided from a rebuilt Chevy 305HO with a Lunati 282 cam and lifters, Holley manifold with Edlebrock 750cfm 4 barrel carb, Accel HEI electronic ignition and Dougs fenderwell headers. Cooling is from a large capacity Griffin Aluminum radiator. Transmission is Chevy Power Glide, that does leak at the speedometer cable port. Easily fixed with a new O ring or gasket. It has a new cable, but no meter inside the car. The rear axle is a rebuilt Chevy 10 bolt most likely from a small truck. Rear brakes are all new, waiting to be plumbed.

The interior is essentially complete, unless you want some kind of headliner. It would actually look good if cleaned then painted since it is shaped nice from the factory in a tub like fashion. Still has the original interior lite attached at the rear of the ceiling.

No bad rust issues, with the exception of the trunk. It now has a partial floor riveted in by previous owner, which is acceptable at best. Not pretty, but does the job. Spare tire slot still needs removal or hole repaired. Floors under carpet are very nice, with the exception of an amateur attempt at fiber glassing in the inner rocker area by previous owner. All in all, the flloors are very solid as is the body, which is no surprise considering the amount of rust proofing applied by Studebaker in 1950. The doors are also very solid at the bottom and underneath, which are usually problem areas for cars this old.

Car has almost all necessary gauges including Tach, temp, oil pressure and volt. No speedo or gas. All lights work, which includes Headlights, tail lights, turn signals, brake and parking lights. Sorry no radio, heater or whitewall tires.
