Dick - Can you save this one?

[Guido]

Dick,

While it has some issues, the bid is currently $25.00 and no reserve. Ought to much more in parts to be harvested if someone didn't want to get it going again. While he says it is a '61 he also mentions that it has a Commander motor.

I think it was StudeDude that alerted us to this guy in Eastern Washington early this year. He is disposing of many many cars that his father had collected...including quite a few Studes. What he didn't sell on eBay, he priced too high for me to get involved. Even if this one was free, I'd be out $150 in gas to go and get it. With a stuck motor and rotted out body it MAY have more than $150 worth of parts on it, but not enough more to be worth the bother. Sorry about that.

It's definitely a 1960 truck, but it may be one of those that got titled as a '61 because of when it was sold originally.

Dick,

I think we talked about this on the forum a while back. I didn't realize it was so far away, but then again, we probably can't save everything. Perhaps you can work out a deal with Bob to grab it and then deliver it to CA when you go down to get you next vehicle.

Gary,
Is it possible this could be a 3/4 ton? Hard to tell, but looks like full wheel covers...I doubt those would cover a split rim...but who knows.

Dan, the serial# indicates it's an E6. That would be a half-ton with a big 6 so those are probably just the optional 16" wheels.

Dick, was there anything else over there worth taking the truck and trailer for?

Mike,
The guys name is Jayson Vories, email jaysonvories@hotmail.com phone number (509) 386-7037. StudeDude alerted this group to the stash in January of this year. I asked for and received a lot of pictures from Jayson. Some Studes worth saving, but his prices were too high for me.
