1950 Studebaker Custom Street Rod Pickup – LS Power, Air Ride, and Hydroboost Brakes

Professionally built from the ground up, this 1950 Studebaker custom street rod pickup blends classic styling with modern performance, comfort, and reliability. Every detail was carefully designed for show-quality looks and real-world drivability.

Under the hood sits a 6.0L LQ9 LS engine with Texas Speed cam, Holley Hi-Ram intake, 95mm throttle body, and custom tune, backed by a 4L80E automatic transmission and PTC converter. Power flows to a 1970 Ford 8-inch rear axle with TrueTrac posi and 4.10 gears. Exhaust runs through stainless 2.5-inch mandrel-bent pipes and SpinTech mufflers for a deep, clean tone.

The chassis features a boxed and modified Studebaker frame, Mustang II front suspension, and 4-link rear with a fully integrated RideTech AirPod air ride system (Bluetooth and level sensors). Braking is handled by Baer 13.5” 4-wheel discs with GM Hydroboost power assist for modern stopping performance.

The body showcases shaved drip rails, Kindig-It handles, frenched headlights, Cadillac LED tail lights, and a 3-inch pie-cut hood. It’s finished in House of Kolor Hot Rod Black and topped off with a custom oak bed, Yakisugi-treated for durability and character.

Inside, a 1959 Impala dash houses Dakota Digital VHX gauges and a full Kenwood Bluetooth audio system with subwoofer and amp. Comfort comes from Vintage Air heat and A/C, tilt steering, power windows, remote entry, and Dynamat insulation throughout.

This Studebaker is a show-quality, street-ready custom that delivers power, comfort, and head-turning style everywhere it goes.
