So sorry guys, but this particular one is on it's way home to me in Australia to become a lead sled. Gotta be a quick gal on a speedy track to find a great find like this one. Don't worry, I'll look after her with loads of T.L.C. I'll keep you posted,...cheers,

1963-64 East Peoria, Illinois. The "Little Stud" B Gas 1940 Champion, that's the one in the back. Front is the all original push car.

 

Hows this for nostalgia? Two of the biggest names in the sport at the time piloting Studebakers!!

anyone interested in a fiberglass trunk lid for a 39 40 champ coupe? has inner framework and mounts to stock hinges.

 

do you know if it will fit a '40 commander?

 

sorry, it will only fit champions, the commander is a much bigger car
