Pretty much NOTHING on a '53-'55 Sedan or Wagon fits the BODY of a "C" Coupe or a "K" Hardtop... 0
Maybe the Factory Side View MIRRORS!
When you look at side view of the 2, you see TALLER Fenders, Doors AND BODY, so nothing is the same.
Your Studebaker Body Parts Catalog will show you Pictorially and Part Number wise the huge differences.
You really cannot work on these Cars or contemplate same, without excess to the Body and Chassis Parts Catalogs.Last edited by StudeRich; 08-05-2016, 02:57 PM.StudeRich

That is because they have no Vertical "Teeth" on the '53 Grille Bars, but I don't think that will help THIS Gentleman.
That took me less time than to type this, about a MINUTE to find in my Downloaded Studebaker Chassis Parts Catalog!StudeRich

I have sold Studebaker Parts since 1970 at that time at the Dealer, and NEVER have seen such a Book, are you sure you have or are Reading the whole Book?
There are Sections for Open and Closed Bodies and the Front End Parts are in the Cooling Section of the CHASSIS Parts Catalog.StudeRich
