72 Cuda, owned 25 years. 496, with ported Stage VI heads, .625 in solid roller, 254/258 at .050, 3500 stall, 3.91 rear. 850 Holley DP, Reverse manual valve body.

1999 Trans Am, LS1, heads, cam, headers, stall, etc! Love to surprise the rice rockets with this one. They seem so confident, then it's "what the heck just happened?"

They are so freakin ugly.  And the bumper does not help with the looks at all.

I've always thought Studebakers were pretty cool lol. Of course they were nowhere to be seen when I was growing up, so maybe it's just the appeal of something different.
Cuda is gone :(
