That don't fit and cost an arm, a leg and a left Henry.  This one was listed
a couple of weeks ago.  Some one pointed out that the inlet/outlet locations
were reversed on the pictured tank and that it isn't for a Studebaker
application.  I see that the enterprising vendor solved this little
oversight/dilemma by including in this listing the fact that the item is
CUSTOM and will require re-routing your hoses on stock Studebakers.  Can
someone please tell me why anyone would want to pay $350.00 to $500.00 for
something that isn't right and will have to be jerry rigged to work?

It will fit a F**d  application in a Studebaker, maybe that's what they had
in mind as "custom".

He doesn't even say what Studebakers it will fit.

Basically it won't "fit" any Studebakers.....To even list something
like this is just plain dumb.  No intelligent Studebaker person would
even even try to "aftermarket engineer" something like this.....unless
as Don pointed out, you have a blue oval in your Studebaker.

I would say that if it went low,  it would be a good deal as a good
radiator shop could move the inlet and outlet over.
I would guess that this if for a 56 or later C-K. Looks too tall for the
53-55.  A new aluminum radiator costs about $600.
