I have a 1953 prototype car that apparently was an attempt to use as many 1952 parts
in case the tooling for the 1953 was not approved by the board.
It seems that "T" tops were in the design.
The car was in the Studebaker grave yard and was rescued by Brad Kuchan,
It was donated to the museum and I stored it for the museum at no cost.
Body only , no frame Dick Quinn has mentioned the car in the Turning Wheels several years ago.
The museum does not want to do anything with it and told me to junk it.
For the scrap price of $150.00 I will part with it to an interested chapter or
ambitious individual.
A notice regarding this car was posted on the bulletin board at Lancaster and some shop
down South called that they wanted it.
No one called back.
I will junk it this week if no one wants it.
