First Cruise PV544

lelshaddai · Mar 27th, 2016, 16:53

I was able to take the 544 out for her first cruise last Saturday. It was a little bit risky with the brakes still a bit unstable. There was a photographer there that took these pics. His quality is much better than mine.

Very nice, thanks for sharing. Still a bit cold and rainy for shows here yet !!

Once i get my new screen fitted i hope to have my first meet this coming weekend. I'm a bit of a purist with classic cars and would prefer to see your PV with standard steel wheels and whitewalls. I still think that you have carried out a brilliant transformation.

I have the original steel wheels I just do not have any hubcaps. I had these wheels available. The tires are shot on the steel wheels. I like to stay pure. Car is very original. At least the rims are made in Germany. It is close.

If would also like to see a pic(s) of your Studebaker. From the jackets everyone is wearing it doesn't appear that it is any warmer in Mesa than here in SE Penna.
