If you find yourself with nothing to do on a Monday night (after 6 PM Pacific time) and you're interested in Studebakers or just a few laughs, you should stop by the Studebaker Chat site, found at http://1962gthawk.homestead.com/chat.html. One of the people in the chat room tonight was Matthew Burnette, who happened to mention in conversation that he has been known to drive his Studebaker like a Jeep. Well, being the curious types that we are, we asked him for a photo. Sure enough, here is his car covered with mud! According to Matthew, "This was after a weekend at the river, and it had rained the previous week. And here in Georgia, red clay is everywhere..." Oh, to be young again! Reminds John of all the trips he took in GD's cars, trucks, etc. through the San Cruz Riverbed (aka "S**t Creek"). Think he's figured out by now why 2nd gear in the Toyota station wagon never worked?
