1952 Studebaker Commander 2 Dr. Highlights: Chevy 327 V/8, chrome valve covers and air cleaner, GM TurboHydramatic 350 automatic transmission, Lokar floor shifter, Brand new red paint (Oct 2015), Rechromed bumpers, Coker wide whitewall tires, New windshield, Converted to 12 volts, Dual exhaust with chrome tips, New brakes, Interior redone (except headliner), New tie rod ends "They're only original once" can probably best describe this very fun and iconically styled 1952 Studebaker originating from the design studios of Raymond Loewy, with the collaborative efforts of Bob Bourke, and Virgil Exner. Absolutely revolutionary in its design for the Studebaker Centennial celebration for 1952, it is a vehicle design by which no other manufacturer came close to emulating. The Studebaker Commander chrome bumpers have been rechromed, however the grille and some escutcheons illustrate 64 years of wear from polishing, the elements and exhibit some pitting. Stainless trim is in nice condition. New bright red paint and wide whitewalls set off it's attractive and unique style. The 1952 Studebaker is motivated by a 327 cubic inch Chevy V/8 coupled to a three speed GM TurboHydramatic 350 transmission, providing much improved power and smoothness. It's absolutely fun to drive, and you will very rarely see anything like it on the road. The 1952 Studebaker Commander will be sold as is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Questions are invited before you bid. I strongly recommended personal inspection and/or inspection by a qualified individual to be performed prior to auction end. Inspection as a condition of sale after the auction end will not be permitted. Bidders with a feedback score of 10 or less, please contact me prior to bidding, thus avoiding having your bids cancelled. I reserve the right to end the auction early, given the Studebaker is for sale on other venues. Transportation is buyer's responsibility. Thanks, Paul 952-221-4465.
