This 1928 Studebaker would be for the individual with the right tools, time and money an awesome "truck" to restore. The ad says it was a dealer conversion from sedan to truck as Studebaker wasn't selling trucks at that time(Is that correct?. The ad also says the engine is free, someone please go after this one.

Studebaker Corp. was selling a number of truck models in 1928. They did NOT build, for domestic consumption, a 1/2 size truck until 1937. I guess it is possible for a dealer to have built a pickup from a brand new automobile, but could have been custom built by anyone at anytime pre-WWII. If the owner has documentation that a dealer had the resources to do this, so much the better. [}]

Now that is cool, a little old and cost too much, but really cool.

I am not very knowledgeable about Studebakers from the 1920's, but I would love to have something like this. Where is Fruitland anyway?

As my family is tired of hearing, I would love to have one of these. Unfortunately, I do not have a place for such a large project at this time.
