1956 Studebaker Pickup Restomod

Here's exactly everything you want in a vintage pickup. This 1956 Studebaker was stylish when new, and there has been a ton invested to make it quite unique today. Plus, underneath the attractive style is a custom A/C interior, V8 power, and plenty of other upgrades that make this an award-worthy total package. Showing up in a Studebaker pickup is already an experience. After all, the fellas from South Bend produced far less than the Detroit guys. This...outsider prospective allowed them to be more aware of styling, and helped in building some of the best-looking trucks on the road. The curvy cab, sculpted rear fenders, and upright box have a sturdy and stylish appeal like a pair of designer jeans â€" and this one goes even further on the flair scale. The creamy paint has plenty of pearl added to the mix to make sure it radiates in the sunlight. There's the right amount of brightwork on the front bumper, bezels, and wheels to give this the right classic American look, but that's not the part that will really have people talking. Instead, this truck is for a lover of details. The pinstriping really steals the show with the orange and brown expertly interwoven on the hood, the sides of the bed, and wrapping around the entire cab. Plus, you have cool custom murals on the rear window and tailgate. And as you dig deeper, you're going to see great classic elements like a real wood truck bed and side slats. They mix nicely with well-integrated modern upgrades like the cab-mounted third brake light and LED taillights. So it's a total package that really showcase how every inch of this build was done with care. Inside is a full custom setup done with style. You'll love all the detail, like how the glovebox matches the wood in the bed, the gearshift knob matches the glovebox handle, and there's hint of the exterior's custom pinstriping the middle of the dash. That same pinstriping color is also the basis for the custom Studebaker stitching on the seat. This has all the best comfort features, including power windows, and AM/FM/CD stereo, and air conditioning. Plus, when was the last time you've seen a '50s classic with a full push-button system for its functions â€" including the starter?! You get a leather-wrapped Lecarra sports steering wheel, and beyond that the full digital gauge package is another reminder that this is a thoroughly upgraded truck. The custom interior and exterior make this stellar, but it's the engine bay that really lets you understand why this has already won so many awards. After all, they saved the best mural for under the hood! Plus, the smooth color-matched walls and hood funnel all your attention to a tidy and shining V8. But more than just a looker, this is a powerful setup with a 350 cubic-inch motor topped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and performance intake. And it has neatly-integrated supporting components like the dual electric fans and the teapot that's actually the radiator reservoir. While there's only about 1,800 miles on the build, we know you won't be able resist adding to the odometer as you take this one to more car shows. And it's easy to do with great driving features like power steering, front disc brakes, and a three-speed automatic transmission. Thoughtfully built custom machines like this rarely leave their creator's hands. So this Studebaker is a fleeting chance at true distinction. Call today!!!
