I am looking at buying a 1929 Studebaker on Monday. Having never owned a Stude nor a car as old as this, is there anything specific that I need to look at or for?
Things that I need to be aware of or questions to ask?
Things that might be deal breakers?

I am wanting a Ford Model AA Hearse/Coach, Ambulance or Panel Delivery Truck. I'd prefer a 1931 or a 1930.
Or if you know where a body might be without the chassis I'd take that as well.

Which model is it? It's actually a hearse, but I believe it is built on a dictator chassis
Does it run? Yes it does. Though he did say that he has not driven it consistently in about 4 years. He takes it out of the garage each month and cranks it up. He said every once in a while he would drive it around town for a few minutes that put it away till the next month.
What is the condition? It looks to be in pretty good shape.
Do you have pictures? I'll have to get some.
From what I can tell be the pics, Everything is there and it does run. I know that I will be repainting it as I don't like the current color and will replace the interior. The other stuff that I am not sure about until I see it in person is I believe things like the interior window cranks are yellowed and knobs are as well.
Also, What kind of gear shifting is required? I know how model A's start with a start pedal and such is it something similar?
