I've got a friend who has a 51 Land Cruiser, great car, carries 6 people
comfortably and can cruise all day at 70+.

Studebaker made the only REAL Land Cruisers! <G>

In a vain attempt to keep this remotely on topic I wish Studebaker had
built a OHV six that was nearly as good as the 4.0 in my good old Cherokee!
