This 1948 Studebaker Commander is the ultimate classic car makeover, swapping out its old engine for a revved-up Chevy 305 V8 with enough chrome to blind astronauts. It’s like giving Grandma a new hip and a pair of roller skates! Bolted to a 700R4 automatic transmission, this beast cruises with overdrive finesse. Riding on a Camaro sub-frame with Mustang II-style steering, it’s all set to outmaneuver its vintage buddies. Simply put, it’s a vintage classic with a modern twist that’ll make you laugh all the way to the car show!
This Studebaker Commander has been modernized inside and out; plus its powered by a Chevy 305, V8 complete with chrome valve covers/ chrome air cleaner. The engine is bolted to a 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive and ends up at the Chevrolet S-10 differential riding on 16 inch wheels. The sub-frame is from a Camaro with rack and a pinion steering setup like the new Mustang II.
