It's a Champion not a Commander
One BIG patch on trunk floor
Mr.Rust coming through in right rear tail-light area
Whats with the paint on left front fender-reflection or what ?
Is that a chunk of mud broken away above trunk handle ?

I am so tired of the crummy pictures I see on e-bay. With the digital technology available nowdays, there's no excuse for it. Most of the pictures for this car were so lousy, it could have hidden a multitude of sins! But perhaps that may have been the point?[}] Buyer beware, what oh?


Lotsa Larks!
K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Studebaker!

Resale red and a poor job of shooting it. They didn't paint the rear valance and there is overspray in the trunk and engine compartment. I wonder what is being hidden?

Isn't it ironic that the photographer took a shot of the serial number plate and then DRF00076 shows up as the serial number. It seems folks are so interested in making the big bucks that they lose sight of the presentation.

You also failed to catch I spelled there incorrectly. As Woodsy Owl used to say, "give a hoot, don't poot."
