Just got my 1946 Studebaker M5 back on the road. Added video of engine running.

On a second look at the photos I noticed a fold forward front sheetmatal --
Is that original? I seem to recall they just had an alligator hood--

Hood is original but was custom made to tilt forward. Original hood would have opened at that front straight up. I definitely like this as it allows way more room to work if needed.
 
Great Studebaker! At different times my Dad and both Grandfathers worked at Studebaker. And yet I still don't
have one!

I came across this one out of dumb luck and wasn't looking for one. I saw it posted on a FB resale site. I wanted it more than the vehicle I had so we traded straight up for it.
