The 1933 Studebaker Rockne Hot Rod Supercharged is a striking fusion of prewar elegance and custom performance engineering. Powered by a 289ci Supercharged V8 with a McCulloch supercharger mated to a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission, this build embodies both vintage character and hot rod muscle. Its Black Cherry exterior with suicide doors and aftermarket chrome wheels provides a bold presence, while the Lincoln Navigator seats and gray interior add comfort and refinement. Modern upgrades like Mustang II front suspension, electric front brakes, and power steering make it far more approachable than its 1930s origins would suggest. This Rockne retains its historic charm while offering the performance and usability to be enjoyed on today’s roads, standing out as a rare and charismatic custom build.
Finished in a rich Black Cherry custom paint job, this 1933 Studebaker Rockne Hot Rod commands attention with its sleek, modernized take on a prewar classic. The custom touches are tastefully executed, including suicide doors, side steps, and a dechromed exterior that highlights the car’s smooth lines. A Mustang II front end modernizes the stance and improves drivability, while aftermarket chrome wheels further enhance its street rod character. Together, these elements create a bold yet elegant look that blends 1930s charm with contemporary flair. Open the suicide doors and step into a custom gray interior that combines hot rod personality with modern comfort. The cabin is fitted with upgraded Lincoln Navigator seats, providing a surprising level of support and refinement for long cruises. Complementing the upholstery are custom door panels, a bespoke center console, and an aftermarket sound system that updates the driving experience without sacrificing vintage appeal. A billet steering wheel and modern gauges round out the cockpit, ensuring the driver can keep close tabs on the performance of the supercharged V8 under the hood.
Beneath the hood of this 1933 Studebaker Rockne lies a rebuilt 289ci Studebaker V8, topped with a period-correct McCulloch supercharger that adds both performance and authenticity to this hot rod’s character. Unlike many modernized builds, this Rockne retains its roots with a vintage Studebaker powerplant, enhanced for drivability rather than excess. Supporting upgrades include electric front brakes for confident stopping power and power steering for improved maneuverability. Delivering its output smoothly to the rear wheels is a robust Turbo 400 3-speed automatic transmission, ensuring reliable performance and an effortless cruising experience. The result is a thoughtfully executed blend of old-school charm and practical upgrades that make this Rockne as enjoyable on the road as it is admired at shows.

Studebaker is one of those legendary American automakers that’s long gone but never forgotten. Our automotive history is full of brands that gave us iconic machines—cars that still stir emotion decades later in a way modern tech-focused brands may never match. Today’s vehicles are fast and advanced, but will they inspire the same connection fifty years from now? Will they even survive that long? Classic cars were built with longevity, soul, and mechanical simplicity, not planned obsolescence. That’s why a seventy-two-year-old build like this 1953 Studebaker Commander Pro Street build still exists—and still turns heads. Based out of Hiawatha, Iowa, this restomod has been transformed into a true street-strip performer, featuring a massive LS6 V8 with the current owner reporting just under 700 miles since completion. It’s a striking custom that’s ready for its next run.
The 1964 Studebaker Challenger was the entry-level midsize model in the South Bend automaker’s lineup, offering understated styling and dependable mechanicals at an affordable price. Today, it represents a rare sight on American roads, appealing to collectors of orphan brands and enthusiasts of mid-century design. This example, finished in blue over a matching blue interior, has been repainted in its original color and is reported to remain largely original, preserving the authenticity that makes it special.
Studebakers are among the more under-appreciated classics of the 1940s and 50s. With distinctive styling and fewer survivors than their counterparts from the “Big 3”, a classic Studebaker is a very desirable car to own. The Champion was produced from 1939 to 1958 across 5 generations. The 3rd generation (1947-52) was the last full-size Champion (the later models were mid-sized). It was available as either a 2- or 4-door sedan, a 2-door convertible or a 2-door coupe (the station wagon version never made it past the prototype stage) and captured the market well, accounting for over 65% of Studebaker sales in its first year.
One of the most popular hot rod platforms turns out to be classic Ford and Chevy automobiles from the Twenties and Thirties – that’s 1920 and 1930 for you!

Back to the subject car, it’s a 1933 Ford Model 40 Hot Rod that started life off as a stylish and dependable two-door coupe but has since undergone a comprehensive rebuild into the form you see here. Up for sale in Cabot, Arkansas, it boasts just over 13,000 miles since rebirth and comes with a 350 under the hood, mated with a Turbo 350 and of course, rear-wheel drive! Join us as we take you on a trip through its essence and you’ll be convinced as to why you should snap it up.
Deuce Coupes, also known as 1932 Ford Coupes, make for fine hot rod platforms. Their Thirties style and versatile platform. Today’s 1932 Ford Model B 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod is a perfect example as to what can be done to a Deuce Coupe, resulting in a truly one of a kind vehicle.

Ford’s 1932 range was an all-new line-up of three variants, namely Model B, Model 18 and Model 40. Succeeding the successful Model A, the 1932 range was made in many forms, including as a two and four door sedan (Tudor and Fordor in Ford speak), the Deuce two-door coupe which was a name reserved for 1932 models only, a convertible, and even a pickup truck-styled body for load carrying. Today, these Thirties Fords have found a new life as being platforms for some pretty diverse hot rods. Take this South Carolina-based 1932 Ford Model B Dearborn Deuce Roadster Highboy Hot Rod as an example. It’s got a powerful Roush 351 Windsor V8 under the hood, a Tremec gearbox, Wilwood brakes and style that will take your breath away. Talk to us if you’d like to give this 3,649-mile baby a home.
