Bought this 64 Stude this week. Here are the door and engine numbers. All original except for the paint. Being told it is a "very few made" model. Discussions welcome on what I have here.

I will bite. It is a 289 engine. Fairly early in production, based on serial no. Probably built in Sept. of 1963. Bsed on the five leaf springs, I am thinking wagonaire. I see a hole in a bracket down by the leaf spring as well, so could have had a torision bar. Let's see the firewall plate and that will definetly narrow it down. Also, a pix ofthe car.

A greasy V8 '64 Studebaker?No deceptive flags to prove I'm patriotic - no biblical BS to impress - just ME and Studebakers - as it should be.Comment

That rear end is not a '64 or the same car, with the '64 Serial because it has '62 and earlier Rear Shocks and lower spring brackets.
A little mod. to get the Traction Bars Stabilizer Bar Ears? I smell a Performance Model. 
Update: Edited out the Traction Bar comment.Last edited by StudeRich; 01-20-2013, 12:35 PM.StudeRich

Single exhaust system. Not original?Comment

That's the 9050th '64 V8 Studebaker, as serial nos. started at 64V-1001.
I'm going from memory (a dangerous thing!), but I know a fellow who had 64V-14402 and I was thinking it was built in late October, and delivered in Nov. '63. It sort-of seems to be that a 10/21/63 engine build date is too late for that serial number of car, unless Studebaker was decades-ahead-of-the-game in 'just in time' production methods!
Course, I could be all wrong on this!
