Chassis number 6950121

Presented in outstanding condition, this sophisticated car is thought to be 1 of just six LWB cars remaining
Straight 8 5,000cc engine
One of the last cars which Gerry bought, it had spent three years after its import in a warehouse in Southampton
In excellent condition, this special was in need of re-commissioning rather than restoration Following enquires to the Studebaker Club of America regarding a replacement gearbox, and quoting the chassis number the President of that organisation informed Gerry that he had a very rare car, one of ‘just 5 or 6’ LWB cars remaining, that they were aware of
However they were able to supply a reconditioned gearbox as it was common across the Studebaker 8 range, now fitted
The original quality of these cars is well evident with this Studebaker which drives as a President Limousine should
Finished in cream over burgundy, this is a sophisticated 1920’s 8 cylinder car impressive for any occasion
