Description:

You are viewing a very special car with a rich history. This car since its restore has been owned by 3 people and has 6, 364 miles on it ... truly is a gem. Here is the back story on it:
When you track down your grandfather's old Studebaker - the car on which he taught you to drive - it's only natural that you put it back on the road, even if that means updating the drivetrain, as did the seller of this 1939 Studebaker Commander for sale on Hemmings.com. From the sell's description:
My grandfather was a Studebaker dealer from 1920 to 1960, and sold this car new in 1939. The owners traded it for a new 1951 Studebaker, and my Grandfather decided to drive it as his own from that then on! When I was 11 years old he taught me how to drive this car. While I was in the Air Force, the car got away from the family. I always kept an eye out for it though.
I located the car in 2000 and proceeded to complete a body-off restoration with tasteful updates. I wanted a car that could travel coast to coast with ease and comfort. To accomplish that I installed a completely rebuilt Studebaker V-8 engine from 1964, a new TH350 automatic transmission and a Goodmorning baby rear axle. The interior is all new with more updates. Although the dash is restored to like new condition, Dakota Digtal gauges are discreetly placed between the sun visors for accurate engine monitoring. Leather power front seats are by Lear of Canada, with the balance of the Stude interior done in matching fabrics.
The colors are from the 1939 Studebaker color cyhart, page 3; combination colors. Studebaker suggested lighter color bodies and dark fenders. this is Coleen Green Light and Coleen Green Dark. The paint is acrylic enamel which is easy to clean and holds super deep shine from one year to the next!
Also included in the sale will be a new spare fuel pump, water pump, complete distributer and an umbrella that can be attached to the truck when open for shade at car shows!
