Vehicle Detail
1954 Studebaker Champion Custom 4 dr. sedan with 21,000 original miles (REDUCED) 21,519 original miles. Paint is over 90% original, a two-tone “Ontario Blue” (I think) on the roof over a pale blue body (although the body color may be “Elko Grey” according to one of the Studebaker color charts). 3 speed on the column with overdrive. The car has always been garaged and has no collision history. As far as I know, the car is mechanically perfect. Original tires were recently replaced. The brakes are new. All fluids have been changed recently. It was my father's car. He purchased it in 1969 and decided that it was too nice to use for daily transportation and only drove it to shows. The car won "Best in Show" at one of the few Studebaker Drivers’ Club meets that he entered it in. I love this car and hate to part with it, but have no time to enjoy it. VIN: 1112010 $11,999 Call (813) 477-7635 anytime or, after 10 a.m., (813) 447-3327 for more details Because of scammers on this site, I have to insist on the following terms: A $1,000.00 deposit via PayPal or cash is due immediately following the Best Offer acceptance (I'll wait 6 hours before rescinding my acceptance if the PayPal or cash deposit is not received) ... NO EXCEPTIONS. Balance due must be received within 7 days. If you can’t take possession within 7 days, I will work with you in holding it longer but if I’m still looking at in 30 days, I may have to start thinking about rent. Also, the vehicle is yours after your funds clear my account (with no recourse), so you may want to be thinking about insuring your interest. I can coordinate with you on shipping issues but I am not in that business so you should realize that and also understand that I will only release the vehicle to someone with Photo ID that agrees with my buyer's identification on eBay or a notarized Power of Attorney form that identifies the buyer's agent, and authorizes them to pick up the vehicle on their account. Your agent will need Photo ID that corresponds with the Power of Attorney. If you have ZERO feedback on Ebay, please call or email me to request authority to bid on this vehicle. Since this vehicle is for sale in other mediums, I reserve the right to cancel the Offer at any time.
