  1. David, I have two similiar badges. From what I know of the 1917 Series 18 Studebaker the badge on the left would be the correct one. I think you will find that it(if it is the correct one for the Series 18) will have a pin in the middle that is pushed through the radiator surround, bent over and soldered in place. The other one will possibly have a metal cup attached which I believe is for later models. I really don't know how the one with the metal cup attaches. Merv

  2. I have had my 1925 Overland since about 1973. Following a full restoration it has been on the road since 1979. The original fan is as per the photographs. However, because one blade was broken and brazed together I removed it from the boss and replaced it with a fan from a refrigeration unit for safety reasons. The boss on my fan has the numbers 306757 as described and the original blades were of a light metal. It is interesting to note that if Ivan is right the "humble" Overland (as well as the T ford) was somewhat ahead of the "better" cars he describes.
