Re: More Packups

Next up is a 51 starting from a club sedan. This will be a "coupe express" Packup, to borrow Studebaker's nomenclature in that it will have a coupe-style roof as implied in the first photo. The roof is not ready to go on till we finish the structural reinforcements and mount the bed panels. The tailgate will be made from a deck lid to maintain the contours of the car. This is of course a lot more work than the other style, but it will be much more stylish. It gets the usual wooden floor with stainless rub strips, also a Caribbean style hood, and numerous hand made trim pieces. The chassis and underbody are already finished.
