Hi, I'm Roger and just acquired a 40 Studebaker Champion 2dr Sedan to street rod. I have been in the autobody and paint industry for nearly 40 years now and am retired. I have built quite a few nice cars over the years both for myself and my customers. This will be my first street rod. I have a usable body on the original frame modified with a Mustang II front suspension and steering. Rear is simply a Chevy rear axle on the original leaf spring set up. At this point engine and trans are up in the air, the car is set up for a small block chevy, but I might like something different. I have a fresh olds 330 I'd like to use, but that remains to be seen at this point. Also considered buying a c4 Corvette and robbing the front and rear suspensions and drive train. Debating a top chop as well. Would appreciate and feedback to my plan and of course all good advice. I live in northeast florida, I have a large backyard shop with a lift so I'm gathering info to make this happen. Thanks.
