Unmolested??? Looks like the front passenger-side fender took a good hit. I'd want to see more of that side of the car.
Plus, the ad says it has a clear title, but only mentions having a copy of the "registration". That would be a big red flag, if I was looking at a purchase.~Matt Connor

Hi
Right passenger fender has a deformation from a low speed hit but nothing a replacement fender wouldn't cure. Maybe someone should take this rundown hardtop and restore it with a '56 President appearance, something of a faux-prototype. Many states only had registration transfers before titles became common in the 1970's.

Hi
Peeling those tacked-on fins wouldn't be hard either, the original '56 quarter panel stamping hides under it. All those bits and pieces that accommodate the '58 taillights and reverse lights/fin caps just bolt on. The only thing I would retain would be the '57-'58 rear bumper....love that shapely form-fitting design.

I think the roof line needs the fins to accent the roof shape Agree adding 56 Studebaker front clip or maybe 57 Clipper. Maybe the seats are Studebaker use of silver threads woven into cloth gone wrong. The silver and gold threads into cloth seats were stating around this time .
