If a Martini is as ugly as a 53 coupe or late 50s Hawk then it ain't too bad!

and some perform like an R4 Avanti.  in fact most will, and some a whole lot better than that! 
    I live about 15 miles from South Bend IN and I can tell tell you that when the Studebakers Drivers Club has their "Homecoming" here every few years there is some fantastic big buck iron to be seen including some really great old pickup trucks,  though in my personal opinion the whole "Lark" series was as ugly as a boil on a warthogs butt.

Studebaker in Improved Zipper with 1" Unertl 8x, wood rough-shaped, plenty of work left. Just one of many projects.

Man, you guys are pretty rough on those Studebakers....

Doubled, can you imagine what a Highwall would look like with that sort of effort and skill devoted to the bluing, engraving and checkering?

A fine Martini without a case is like a collector Studebaker without a garage. (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Somewhere on the web you had posted pictures of the innards of the set trigger martini. Do you remember where? If not, are the pictures available for you to send them to me? I'd forgotten about them till you posted this. I'd like to add them to my collection of martini data. You should have my email addy listed somewhere in our exchanges.
