Studebaker 1953 salt dessert racer

[swede]

Here is my 1953 Studebaker i made like a Bonneville salt dessert racer.

First some project pics


i chopped the roof so i can get a low profile on this racer

I made a front spoiler of plastic card and some needles so it looks like rivets holding the spoiler

safety is good in fast cars so i made a roll cage

A 392 Hemi will make this car go fast , ignition wires in red

Very, very, cool! Depicts the genre perfectly. I'v always wanted to build a salt flats car. Great job!
