History:
This
Studebaker was purchased by Mr. R.C. Hutts of Roanoke, Virginia from the Jarrett – Chewning Motor
Company on March 20, 1951
and remained with the family until purchased by our client. Included in the photographs are images of a
notebook he compiled which contains many original documents. These documents include original
registration, dealership information, Virginia State Inspection receipts-
including the first and last Virginia State Inspections (the last inspection
was in 1987, upon which time the car was removed from service. When it was returned to the road in 2008, it was registered as an antique).
Condition:
Excellent
condition. This very low mileage Studebaker has been selectively restored as
necessary to preserve as many of the original finishes as possible. The plated
components, as an example, are original and in beautiful condition. Thus, these
items and the interior, trunk and under body remain in original, untouched
condition.
The body has been
carefully refinished in the original color, and minor blemishes were removed.
The car has no corrosion or collision damage and retains 100% of its original
interior trim.
The engine was
given a light rebuild and has been nicely detailed in correct finishes. The car
starts instantly and runs perfectly.
Presently, for show, the car rides on 4 Allstate 4-Ply Wide Whitewall 6.70-15 tires with a spare in the trunk. Included are 4 Kumho 215/75/R15 radial tires, mounted on painted wheels, matching the body color, for touring.
