1959 Studebaker 3/4 ton, NAPCO factory 4 x 4.
Basically stock
Restored a few years back, Still very presentable.
5 speed OD replacing 4 speed
No rust or rot. A beast to drive
4.89 TT rear
No Power Steering
maybe a couple of hundred miles after restore
I paid as much as I ever paid for any collector car, my long suffering wife has wrangled a lot of concessions from me. I have to let go of one excellant '60 Lark 2 door sedan and a not so nice '61 T cab, plus future draft picks "to be announced"....otherwise I will be in her debt for years to come. Nothing new there. She's a sweetheart.
What do you think a rational price for said truck might be? Just checking to see if I'm certifiably nuts as opposed to eccentric.
I want to install a old Ford type P.S. set up and remove some leaves from the spring so I don't get a hernia and rattle my fillings about. I know the purists will sceam, but I drive my Studies and want to drive this one.
Oh yea, I live in Tucson, I will need A/C.
Any ideas short of my having some sort of act wished upon my body or mind will help.
I don't have pics yet, maybe by the end of the week.
Thanks all
