I saw one of these at the vendor display during the AOAI/SDC dual meet.  Now I want to purchase one in good to excellent condition.

I’ve always thought that Studebaker  should have equipped all their R2 equipped vehicles with a carb pressure box (as all ‘57-‘58 Golden Hawks were equipped)

Although current owners carefully maintain the factory pressurized carb, back in the day, when many used these vehicles for everyday transportation and hoods weren’t lifted very often, gasoline leaks were somewhat common!
