COLORS OF WHITE OVER YELLOW ALONG WITH THE BRIGHT CROME & STAINLESS BRING OUT THE INCREDIBLE DESIGN OF THIS LEGENDARY AUTOMOBILE. THIS PRESIDENT COUPE AND POPULAR COLOR COMBINATION WAS USED IN 1955 FOR A VARIETY OF MAGAZINE ADS. I WAS FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO PURCHASE THIS BEAUTIFUL 1955 STUDEBAKER PRESIDENT FROM RAY SKILLMAN, OLDS, GMC TRK DEALERSHIP, INDIANAPOLIS, IND. THIS PARTICULAR CAR WAS ON DISPLAY AT RAY SKILLMAN CLASSIC CAR MUSEUM, GREENWOOD, IND. THE PURCHASE DATE WAS 05/07/07 WITH AN ACTUAL ODOMETER READING OF 009355, WHICH APPEARS ON THE TITLE AND ODOMETER DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. THIS STUDEBAKER DRIVES AND PERFORMS AS IF THE MILEAGE IS CORRECT. ODOMETER READING TODAY 8/19/16 IS 17034. WE HAVE ENJOYED DRIVING THIS FINE AUTOMOBILE 7, 679 MILES SINCE OUR PURCHASE. IT HAS MADE MANY TRIPS TO SOUTH BEND, IND. AND AS FAR AS SPRINGFIELD, MO. TO VARIOUS STUDEBAKER EVENTS. THE MILEAGE ON THIS CAR IS REFLECTED BY ITS CONDITION AND PERFORMANCE. THE CAR IS 61 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE NO HISTORY ON THE CAR PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE. THERE CAN ALWAYS BE A QUESTION MARK AS TO THE MILEAGE OF A 61 YEAR OLD CAR.
CONDITION: THIS AUTOMOBILE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. PAINT, INTERIOR, ENGINE COMPARTMENT, CHROME/STAINLESS, FROM BUMPER TO BUMPER. THE BODY IS IN GREAT CONTDITION AND SHOWS NO PREVIOUS SIGNS OF DAMAGE OR RUST. UNDERCARRIAGE IS STRAIGHT AND VERY CLEAN. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN A HEATED GARAGE AND NEVER DRIVEN IN WINTER SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT.
CAR IS IN STOCK CONDITION, STARTS AND RUNS GREAT WITH CORRECT OIL PRESSURE, POWERED BY THE ORIGINAL SMOOTH RUNNING 259 V8 ENGINE WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. YELLOW HAS BEEN REPAINTED PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE. THE YELLOW AND WHITE BOTH ARE IN AMAZING CONDITION.
