    1928 Studebaker Wood wheels and tires

    These are not the same as the 1926. The 1926 would have rear brakes which are external contracting bands, 1928 has more conventional rear brakes within the brake drum. Also if the 1926 has front brakes the car won't have wooden wheel, they should be metal disc wheels. If however the car has wood wheels then it won't have brakes, these wheels are for a car with four wheel brakes.

    Hope this helps

    I think that these came off a car with rear wheel brakes only.  Only has a drum on 2 of them.

    Help. Finally getting my 24 Stude back together and need an end cap {brush holder} for my Remy Generator. I had bought a Wagner thinking it would work but is way different. Maybe some other makes and models will fit this. My car is a 1924 EL Special Six. Does anyone cast these new?? post-51201-143139171364_thumb.jpgOriginals are pot metal. Thanks for any help.

    1922 Special Six paint question

    in Studebaker, Erskine & Rockne

    Posted

    Hello, I have a 1924 special six and had the same question. I visited the museum archives in South Bend to find out. According to what I was told, my car was available in a blue and a burgundy. My car was black. They further explained that they would start the year with so much of each color and when that ran out the would use what they could get. I have an original Studebaker parts manual that covers from 1922-1925 and in it I found a notation that Studebakers were available in most any custom color. I do know from research that metallics did not come out until about 1927. To me that kind of leaves option to color up to you.

    I am in need of a water pump impeller or a used water pump. It looks like several years of the special and big six cars will work. Also I would like to find some one who knows about the clutch disk used on the 24 model. I need to find two of the new disks. Thanks Seaton

    1927 Studebaker Dictator paint question

    Hi Brian, I am not sure about the 27 model year but in talking with people at the Studebaker Museum about my 24 model I was told they had standard colors but that you get one about any color you wanted. Once the standard color ran out for the year it was what ever they could get. One of my original studebaker parts manuals states that in order to get the corect parts you had to provide the body and serial number due to the fact that there had been numerous custom units painted. This does not answer your question but for what its worth I am going with a color other than was shown. I am going with what I think will make the car look the nicest to me! Thanks Seaton
