Motts: Forgot to add. If these engines were in the foundry, They are sadly gone now. Some sold and the rest moved to bldg. 84.

Motts: I have a dumb question. were these engines in the stamping plant or the foundry? Also, did you all know that all of the factory buildings were connected with underground tunnels? I got the privlage of touring the foundry recently and it's AMAZING! The tunnels are a bit musty and a few mice, but totally worth it. Dude you need to go back!

To john. Yup, shure do. Studebaker FOUNDRY or building 84 (closest to the rail road tracks by the cove)

I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Studebaker was always active in war efforts. They built their own military trucks, "US6" is what they called them, but they ran monster V6es. Studebaker also made late model vietnam and korea trucks with V8s. Maybe these are surplus NOS (new old stock) engines. If they are, remember that in the later years, studebaker didnt always build their own engines, Post 1963.

Was that just debris on the floor or was that fire remains?

I've been looking through the whole gallery (beautiful shots btw) and I must say the colors are just really wacky. I mean, I like such bright colors on the walls but it just seems really weird to have it in a mental asylum.

And the funny thing is, I work with people that get prescription drugs on the street at like $4-5 a pill so all this precaution did nothing. It still goes on because people go to the doctor fake something ask for hydrocodone or whatever, get it, then sell it. THAT'S why when I go to get my other Rx, they have to go in this locked compartment to see if it's in stock.

So many things that are under lock and key these days weren't in prior years. It's the people that have abused these items like medications or the street sales of these stubstances that wreck it for the rest of us. I have had chronic back pain for the last 20+ years thanks to an auto accident. In order to be able to work full time, live my life and not lay in bed like a vegtable all day I am on a high dose of narcotics to keep the pain down to 5-6 (on a 1-10 scale) so I can function. I used to be able to call in my script to the doctors office but a couple years ago they changed that proceedure so that now I have to make an appointment every 30 days and actually see them, pick up my scripts and leave. And you know why? Because of the people that abuse these narcotics and sell them on the street for recreational use and have no real use for them other than to get high. I say smoke pot like everyone else and leave the prescription drugs to people that need them in order to live.

They kind of look like prostitutes.

it looks like it has a face of its own - robot like

ALWAYS amazes me when theres electricity still in these places

OMG

great shots as always

that first one was for Frankenstein's monster i think
