Has anyone found a replacement for the spring (303682) in the rear window latches on the "C" bodied coupes/hawks??

I believe Milt is referencing this bit of spring steel.
I have only seen it at swap meets as part of the latch assembly.Brad Johnson,

They won't go by part number, but if you have the dimensions, this place has about everything. Rivets, Riveting Tools and Equipment | Hanson Rivet & Supply CoTom Senecal Not enough money or years to build all of the Studebakers that I think I can.Comment

That Spring is unlike ANY other and probably will only be found on a Salvage Window Frame from a Parts Car.StudeRich

I think I have some new springs somewhere. I'll look tomorrow. I could probably turn the rivets on a lathe, but with the time involved the price wouldn't be caso friendly.

A clock maker might be able to make a spring like that.RadioRoy, specializing in AM/FM conversions with auxiliary inputs for iPod/satellite/CD player. In the old car radio business since 1985.
