Just trailered this one home. Matching numbers 53 Belgian original, low mileage. Garaged and untouched for 46 years. 8)



And a big kedo tucked away in the boot!

very nice! is the interior all good? what are your plans for it?

piet&som Tue Feb 27, 2024 9:23 am

I want to preserve as much as possible, meaning get it technically safe and sound to go thru auto-inspection.

And I found another stick beneath the bootliner...















Reservoir needs to go..

Not yet, my German Shepard likes to sit in it. :D

It's a pump for the windshieldwashers,

Phantastisch, it does not get much better than this.
Studebaker on the measuring stick....so cool.
Original Zwitter-style light switch.
I wonder about that front hood hinge; shouldn't there be a 3rd attachment bolt in the middle?

kafer53 Fri Mar 01, 2024 3:38 pm

Any dash pictures?
:)

Nice find! Wish they all could look like that when they get found!

Me too, took me by surprise. I expected a 3-bolt but it looks absolutely genuine.
It's a september made..

that looks like an accessory windshield washer pump. My zwitter had one installed in the same spot when I found my car. Cool 8)
