alsancle Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Nice car. Somebody will get a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Huston Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Nice looking President. Seeing this otherwise nice restoration with a 1931 Studebaker accessory bird radiator cap instead of the correct 28-29 wing cap, that matches the wings on the lights, makes me wonder what else was done to this car that is not correct.

stude24 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Auction estimate is $15 to $25 K. Seems cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This car being one of the few “no reserve” items makes me wonder. Is this car an enticement to get folks to register for the auction, knowing it will probably still get all its value in spite of the no reserve.

The original 313 cid has been upgraded to the 337. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the early 1928 FA President (first series 1928) had the 313 cid engine. When the mid year FB models came out the engine was the 337 cid version.

Thats a damn good price for a restored car even if there are incorrect items on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
