I got a call from a non-Stude old car guy about noon today. He told me he had encountered a fellow in a broken down Stude. He reported he had pushed the fellow off of the road.
I responded to the scene to see if I could be of assistance. The car was starving for fuel, and the ignition switch would not turn. He bypassed the ignition, and we added fuel to the car. I was following him home, but the car died twice more. A passer-by offered to pull him home for us:
Once we got him home, I saw this in his drive:
And, he realized that, through his frustration, he had been trying to start the President Coupe:
with the '50's key.
Both cars are for sale, the Rest of the Story to follow.
