Studemax Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I've purchased running Studebakers of the same type and era in good condition for much less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barryh Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) A no-rust, running Commander 2dr is worth asking price for a serious builder. How much $$ do some owners pay for buying patch panels & paying a body shop to weld, beat and fill a rusty body?

8E45E Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 As long as all the parts are there, I don't think $4500 is too out of line for it. Most who want to restore a car of any make would want to tear it down to the level as seen in the photos to restore it. And it appears it is a rather well optioned car, with radio, clock, backup lights, etc. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig That's the conundrum. Any project vehicle needs to have some dismantling in the process and, in that process it becomes less appealing once the owner has lost interest, even though some essential labor has already been accomplished. The only thing I see going against this as an investment is the fact it is a two door sedan, and not a Starlight or convertible; but those sedans were some very fine vehicles. And I'm thrilled to see more people finding them worth resurrecting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
