Description:

Please allow me to introduce you to my 1955 Studebaker President Hardtop. The car is best described as being somewhere along the lines of being a survivor and a restored car. 259 V8 4 barrel, 3 speed automatic with locking torque converter{overdrive} . Power steering, and power brakes. Restored ? not really as this car never needed a restoration. It is in such condition that the casual looker believes it to be restored but fact is that it is more of the survivor type. It is bout rust free as they come. Not a patched up car at all. Solid as they come. With just a minimum of care it will present itself in many years to come just as it does now. All systems are a go. A turn key specimine that I have confidence in driving any distance I like without breaking down on me. When I got the car it was in great shape but me being a handicapped individual decided to be on the sure side so as to avoid maladies on the road leaving me in a bad way. Since my tenure, I have replaced the distributor with a remanufactured Delco window type, new coil, voltage regulator, points, plugs, wires, hoses, rebuilt generator, remanufactured alcohol resistant fuel pump, auxiliary electric pump and a complete aluminum dual exhaust system with quiet tone mufflers. Gas tank cleaned and prepped. The odometer reads somewhere in the 80, 000 range but you wouldn't suspect it to be just from looking and driving it. Previous owners I would say took great care in pampering this car. Starts quickly when cold or warmed up. Doesn't get hot. Good oil pressure. Drives down the road true. Smooth shifting and great brakes. I would suggest that the engine has been freshened up because it runs so smoothly and quietly. Interior has been redone in a period correct theme. Suspension is up to par, no worn out components. Engine is nicely detailed. I don't buy or sell junk so bid with complete confidence. Please call me with any questions. We can have a forthright conversation about this car. I am a 30+ year member of the Studebaker Drivers Club and have this car available only because I am losing storage space. You can be in the drivers seat of this car for way way less than you would invest in a fixer upper type. Jim 334 792 4323
