roadmaster37 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thanks. I went clear thru the motor already, just got done painting the body and fenders. My side mount is on the drivers side, I see yours is on the passenger side. Is there also one on the driver? Where are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studerex Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Doug you missed a auction in your area. http://gpsold.com/auction/don-and-carolyn-wells-living-estate-auction/ I made the trip. Don had parted out 4 35s. They did a poor job of advertising and weren't car people doing the auction. Things went cheap. Alot went to scrappers. Send a photo of the door latches you need. I got some at the auction. Also stuben, I got the rear panel and trunk lid that has some latches and trim pieces. It might be what you need.Rexstudebakerclassics.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmaster37 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Hello, thanks for your response. This is a picture of the latch that I need. Also my junction block for the fuses broke if you would have one. Thanks for your help. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stuben Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Hello, I've been contacted to help with someone else as far as Air cleaners and hood pivots and trunk latches, I'm still being patient as far as what I'm looking forand answers I too need, mostly it seems the information I get is someone has what I'm looking for but cant find the time too look for it, or they know someone that has it or knows more about something but cant come up with their contact information, I figure after I'm all done that's when someone will say hey that's the wrong horn or the wrong head light or air cleaner or I got one of those. My 35 no matter if I get the trunk latches or the right horn or what ever it is will be original to the first owner, if he broke itor if he changed it then its original enough for me.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadmaster37 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Hello, I am looking for a door latch, passenger side, for my 35 Studebaker Dictator Funeral Coach. I do have one but a couple pieces are missing. Even one for parts may work. If you know of any could you contact me?
