CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
---|---|
The car was originally sold and delivered to Cuba in 1948. Letter for deliver will be included (from Studebaker in South Bend, for delivery of several cars to Cuba). The majority of the life of the car was in Florida. I recently purchased another Studebaker, a 1950 Commander locally and plant-keep that one. Service manual included. I have driven this car weekly 10 to 15 miles to evaluate and determine reliability of the car. I am a retired automotive engineer.Car Overview:1. Rebuilt engine in 2012, with just over 5000 miles. Sounds and runs great.2. Rebuilt rearend in 20193. Trans shifts through all gears no issues noted4. Recent paint job, last 10 years?5. Tires good tread6. Interior in nice condition, as seen in photos7. Have driven the car up to 55 MPH on the X-way with no vibration8. Car starts every time with no hesitation9. Very Solid Body10.Three on the tree. Observations that might require attention: 1. Minor electrical issues, e.g. Driver headlight operation is intermittent, wiring should be reviewed and insulated better in general.2. Horn does not work3. Speed odometer not operational4. Window regulators work but need adjustments and/or repair to operate more easily. 5. Side windows and trunk seals are OK but I would want to rework - no major leaks but not very professional job at re-paint 6. Some steering wheel wandering, as stated in the manual. Might need to look at ball joints or steering adjustment?7. Front hood latch sometimes sticks - will open with some effort8. Passenger side window is cracked but intact9. No key for locked glove box. Car is sold "AS IS' with no implied or expressed warranty. There are no returns and / or refunds. Sales are final. Buyer is expected to pick up the car locally or provide transportation. Title will be provided when full payment is received. Car is insured with Haggerty. |
