1927 Restoration.

[Bruce Cook]

Hello from Australia. I own this and starting to restore it. Looking for any information and contacts.

Your car is a lot like the 1928 Erskine owned and restored by Sandy Olson, owner of Olson's Gaskets in Port Orchard, Washington.  

 

See his web page about his car:  https://www.olsonsgaskets.com/about/our-projects/1928-erskine-model-51/

These are very helpful.

Welcome aboard the restoration forum. Man, there is always someone finding nice cars down in your country and it seems that they're in fairly good shape. I live in the North East of the US and our cars suffer from severe metal rot due to the salt and ice melt materials used on the road.

Thank you for the information. Gives me something to think about

Awesome restoration project. I must say I’m jealous of that garage. All I have at home is a carport and gravel driveway. I’m restoring my classic beetle at the current moment then after that I have more projects 😆.

Bruce welcome aboard, Nice looking resto project. I have never owned a Studebaker but for reasons unkown to me I have a soft spot for them? Beautiful shop, def looks like this is not your first rodeo!

You took the words out of my mouth. Awesome garage! And cool old Studebaker, too. Best wishes on the project.
