Barn Find

[lstude]

WOW! Can you imagine walking into an old barn (especially one you had just bought!) and finding this! [:0]

It must have been one heck of a flood to cover everything with mud this high up.

Looks as though it could be a "R" or "JT" series,as it has the tube from crank to the air breather,& a 4bbl. carb, or just the Studebaker "dress-up kit" i can't make out any fender badges.One would think he would just take a hose to it if 1 were available.Noticed rust on top of inner fender lip of right front,probably a lot more covered by the mud.

It has a brake booster- could be disk brakes and it looks as if it has a full dash. Also has Powershift.

The description says it has air conditioning, too. I guess it is just missing the evaporator, compressor, and condenser <G>. BP

The car is in Falmouth, Kentucky, which, when 'Googled,' shows had extensive flooding, in the late 90's. Sitting like that for 10 years.... not a good thought..
I wonder if the owner was one of the 200 that were still listed as missing ...

I think he meant 4-40 air conditioning!

He also said it has power locks and power windows. I think he just copied it from an earlier ad and forgot to delete these items.

Definitely a disk brake car, not the brake fluid container on the firewall. Also, it could be a package car w/ a medallion on the grill, although someone could have put it there after the fact.
