    As a lover of Studes I couldn't resist when I found #8372385 so close to home. History with it into the 1990s . Safford Cream with Ontario blue roof, flax vinyl interior automatic, power steering. Number all check including motor. It had been going through this second restoration. It is 95% here with me I found this North Texas Wheel July,2002 with this car pictured pg.2. It has all been wrapped and dry stored 13 years, the car wet sanded and buffed devoid of all glass/interior/chrome with everything in about 7/8 boxes.

    You've got arguably the best looking car of the 20th century, enjoy it. I do mine ('53)

                I am missing both front window regulators, rear taillight housings, both sunvisors including brackets. Where or whom is a good source?

                  I have several regulators (I'll assume they are the cranking assembly that moves the window up/down) out of K-series cars. If they are the same, I'll make you a screaming deal on a pair. I'll post a couple of pictures of what I have if interested. Bob

                      You might try Mark Chance in Washington state.
