Viper Studebaker

[zgoo]

Newly started 1953 Studebaker. We dipped the body and removed all the floors and inner fenders. We replaced the stock frame for a new Art Morrison frame. I was lucky to find a Brand New Viper ACR-X track day engine left over from the ACR-X race program. Hand built and broken in on the Dyno at Dodge. The engine sheet reads 645 HP and 605 Tq and come ready to drop in with starter and dual disc clutch. Trans is a TR6060 Viper 6 speed. Huge amount of body change are taking place. We chopped the top about 4 inches and the roof is moved forward about 4 inches but we are still massaging it. The wheels and tires are just shop rollers and are not what we are going to use.
