for sale

Price: US $10,999.00

Description:

This is a great prospect for your entry into The Studebaker Driver's Club Inc. Why? because it is a turnkey car with no mechanical issues, no damaging rust ever, and it starts, drives, stops, and handles better than you would imagine for a car 55 years old. Sold new in CA in 1962 and has 1963 black plates issued in Shingle Springs CA where it lived and was maintained. Sold again in 2012 when it moved to Watsonville CA. Powered by its original 289 V8 and shifted by a 3 speed plus overdrive. The transmission shifts as new and the overdrive works flawlessly. The mileage of 97, 825 is believed to be correct and backed by Auto Appraisal Networks photo book dated 2/12 when miles were 92, 554. The appraisal quote at that time said $23, 600. Included with the clear CA title is a shop manual, owner's manual, owner's accessory manual, dealer color swatches and Studebaker Dealer Fact Book. Radio/heater and manual steering/brakes make for a fine touring machine. Paint was reapplied in the 1980s and is a good match to #6217 Sapphire Lustre. Distributed by Studebaker-Packard Corp. Studebaker also distributed Mercedes Benz in this time frame which may explain the MBZ look alike grill penned by Brooks Stevens. All pleated vinyl, carpet, and headliner appear as original although they may not be. All sheet metal, floor pans, and trunk floors also appear original. Serviced in April 2017. Underbody condition is dirty with typical surface rust on the factory bare metal but look to be completely solid and working correctly. The seller is an amateur restorer representing The Car Store, a CA dealer selling it as a part of an estate. Car is in Newark CA (between Oakland and San Jose).
