1927 Studebaker Parts NEEDED

[Ovalrace25]

1927 Studebaker parts help needed. This car is a series 27 Commander and needs a water pump, pump drive couplings, Driveshaft coupling, speedometer cable and speedometer. Also need one tie-rod end.

These items come from an unusual request in that the car is out of this country and the mechanics working on it have limited English language skills. They are unable to reproduce these parts and are also unable to do even minor alterations or machine work to fit replacement parts.

What may be necessary to get the car operable again is to find a similar model here in the states and fit the replacement parts to that car then send them.

Can anyone help me with this project?

Thanks you in advance,

Parts inquiries would be best addressed to members of the Antique Studebaker Club or the Studebaker Drivers Club.

Three suggested sites:

You would do well to contact Bob Kapteyn in Joliet, IL ("studebaker@mac.com"), he has a large inventory including early model items.

Some of the parts you ask for like the water pump (flex fabric) drive couplings have been reproduced by a guy named Steve Muntz in Washington state, I don't have the correct address at this location but he specializes in pre war Studebaker perishable parts including some cast metal items. I don't believe he has a web site or such presence online, he advertises often in the Antique Studebaker Review newsletter. I will try to find the contact data over the weekend for you. Stude8
