Many thanks in advance, Laurent With no reverse curve on the rear fenders, having a cowl vent (with a Special/Big Six control) and body mounted cowl lights, it looks like a late 1921 or early 1922 Light Six. Export cars often had a mix of model and model year parts and came out of Walkerville, Canada rather from the high volume assembly line in South Bend. Here is a photo of what the original dashboard and gauges would look like. 1920-1921 dashboards were done in a Mahogany finish and 1922 - 1924 were finished in a straight grained walnut. Lighting Switch Assembly p/n: 45227 (Remy, distributor w/Eagle Lock) 45477 (Remy, distributor w/ Yale lock) 44898 (distributor prior to vehicle serial number 1,045,438) 45228 (Remy, magneto w/Eagle lock) 44899 (magneto prior to vehicle serial number 1,045,438) Ammeter Gauge p/n: 43999 Dash Light p/n: 39376 Oil Pressure Gauge p/n: 43847 Speedometer Speedometers were supplied directly from Stewart (the manufacturer) so Studebaker did not create their own part number By that way, your steering wheel controls should be rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (it should be at 3:00, not 6:00). Let me know if you have any questions? Scott Edited February 15, 2023 by Stude Light (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1924lightsix Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Hey @Stude Light, Sorry to post here. I can't send private messages yet. I recently acquired a 1924 Light Six. However, my dash looks different than yours. One of the differences is metal dashboard instead of walnut or mahogany. Do you have any photos of what the walnut dash looked like? Also, a few more amateur questions: Those part numbers...can they still be found or purchased anywhere? Any advice for restoring the gauges and metal to look as nice as yours? My Light Six has a clock (photo attached). I have no idea how it works. Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC38dls Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 For your clock you may want to show it to this clock guy.

Any advice for restoring the gauges and metal to look as nice as yours? My Light Six has a clock (photo attached). I have no idea how it works. Any tips? The original dashboards are made from a 3/4" thick piece of wood (southern yellow pine perhaps?) with a metal face formed over it. The metal face was then painted to look like wood with a woodgrain pattern. You may ask why they didn't just use a piece of mahogany or walnut? I believe the answer is that the dashboard provides a cross-body structural support that triangulates the body panel below the windshield to provide a much stiffer structure. Having the screws go through the metal face versus just wood is much stronger. I used a company out of Pennsylvania that provides that woodgrain application service. The pattern was based on an original Light Six with a rusty dashboard that still showed the wood grain pattern when you wet down the dash with water. The picture I posted of mine is what the walnut dash would have looked like new. I can take a better photo to try to avoid the glare when I get a chance. The part numbers really serve little purpose unless someone happens to have some NOS parts in a box. There are gauge restoration shops that will do the work. My gauge faces are original but I re-plated the bezels with copper, then nickel to get the original look. I disassembled the gauge bezels and just lightly cleaned the gauge face. I used the plating kits that Caswell Plating sells. Below are a couple of photos of the copper plate and process. Most all the work is in the polishing process. The clock using a spring. It is wound by the little knob which is pulled out to set the time. It is rare to have one that works without having it restored by someone that specializes in that. I would suggest you start your own thread for your car. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
