        Even in the two door sedan models, Studebaker design was years ahead of the others. I have a friend who has a '52 Champion two door. He could have done a Hawk but he wanted something different. He said "Everyone has a Hawk." Well, not everyone does but we know what he means.

        Glad to see more folks appreciating these overlooked models; still very affordable sleek design and starting to gain true value.

          I like it.

          The 2 door sedans are my favorite, of course I am prejudiced.

                I'm not that wild about the skull and cross bones thing, but I'd certainly drive it. Good to see another 52 getting some attention.

                  I like the 47-52 2 door sedans more than the starlight coupes. Yours is very nice! []

                    My honest reaction: I was scrolling down the photos, Jim, and thinking, "Hey, this is pretty cool. I wonder if it's on e-bay. I think I'll hook to the link and see the details."

                    Then I realized it wasn't for sale. Neat car! 'Just something about it...BP
                    We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

                        I'm not so much into the skulls, but PLEASE tell me that skull lights up when you hit the BRAKES.

                          Give a little info on that console - what's in it, what's it from, etc. Love the car, I think I had those same seat covers on an old Corvair!

                            The console is from a '62-66 Studebaker car (except Avanti) with bucket seats.

                              Of course it is turned around backwards!

                              What engine is in the car and can you show it?
