1937 Dictator Fuel Sending unit
ibrake4oldcars replied to Studebaker1965's topic in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne
I've had 2 sending units rebuilt by these guys: https://tristarrradiator.com/. I think it was in the $150 range. Before and after pics. -

Herman, There is a stylized bird mascot on eBay right now. -

1934 Commander convertible top
ibrake4oldcars replied to ibrake4oldcars's topic in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne
Thanks Aussi John. I will take a look at those options. Hoping to find an original one since I’m trying to make the car as original as possible. I appreciate it! -
Wanted - I'm looking for one of these wing bolts for the convertible top on a 1934 Commander. Does anyone have one they'd be willing to sell? I have one good one and one bad one. I believe it is part #254631W (if I'm reading the parts manual correctly). Any help much appreciated! Thanks, John

Adding air conditioning to 1939 Commander

This 53 Land Cruiser that sold at the Hackenberger auction 3 years ago had a trunk mounted AC unit. It may have been retrofitted. -
The Commander dash tag
ibrake4oldcars replied to ibrake4oldcars's topic in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne
Rex, I guess I wasn’t clear. I have a very nice condition The President, The Dictator and a Body By Studebaker tag and I would trade one of these for a better The Commander tag. Thanks. -
Does anyone have a better example of one of these dashboard tags they would be willing to sell me for my restoration project? I would like to find one in better shape. there is a deep scratch on the one I have. I could also trade for a The President, The Dictator or Body By Studebaker tag if you would rather trade than sell. Thanks, John

Needed for a 34 Commander
ibrake4oldcars replied to ibrake4oldcars's topic in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne
I can't say for sure since I don't have either one. That pic was from another member who lives far away. But I would guess they are probably the same length and around 9 or 10 inches long. Thanks -
Needed for a 34 Commander
ibrake4oldcars replied to ibrake4oldcars's topic in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne
Thank you for the reminder vintage1. I haven’t been able to find more obscure parts there in the past but it’s worth a try! Appreciate the tip. -
I'm looking for a couple of parts for a 34 Commander restoration: 1. The clamps that secure the gauge cluster behind the dash. The picture below is from another club member. He said there are two clamps, slightly different, a right and a left. The parts manual lists them as #258937 and #258938. It looks like they are one year only. Any chance someone has a pair? 2. Also looking for a rear view mirror part #257911 or a nice period correct example. Thanks for any help! John

Not mine, found it while surfing the web and thought I would share. Looks like it would be a fun car to own! https://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/d/greenfield-studebaker-1928-roadster/7138998415.html

Door aligner needed

Thanks all for your input. Rex, I will take you up on removing them myself if I can't find any by the May swap meet in South Bend! -

Does anyone have one of these door aligners that you would be willing to sell me? There are two per door on my 34 Commander but I am missing one. I would like to find two if possible. They are 1-5/16" in length. Also how were these finished? Thanks for your help. John
