Greetings all,
I posted this on another forum and meant to post here too!
My story- skip this part if you want!
I recently came across what I thought was a great deal while looking for a family project car to restore. I found for sale what was listed as a 1927 Studebaker Commander. Having very little experience and just going with my gut instinct I thought why not it should be fun!
Well I have had a wonderful time researching but before I start anything I want to positively identify the cars. You will note that I posted Cars!
When I went to purchase the listed car, there was another car- already in disassembly stored next to it with some paint work, etc already completed!
The thought was that one car had been purchased to provide parts for the other. I ended up buying both cars and several containers and boxes of Studebaker parts for $1500.00.
I was not sure but- felt that I had made a good deal!
Upon return home with my treasures and having started the long process of inventory of all the parts that where included (filled a trailer-two pickups and a car hauler) I am now here posting for help.
I believe- based upon my research- the titles are incorrect! They list the cars as a 1927 Commander and a 1922 4 Door Sedan
The first serial number is 4002781 - I believe this to be a 1928 GB Commander
The second serial number is 1303532- I believe this to be a 1926 ER Standard 6
I have several numbers from the engines but have not been able to determine which are correct for identification.
Attached are some pictures for clarity. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers and happy motoring!
Joe
