Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / April 2007Stude Auction Theft.....
Well, we cleaned house at the Studebaker Auction. Cars were being stolen for a couple hundred dollars, parts lots of even NOS parts were being taken for pennies on the dollar. What can I say? Sometimes you just happen to be in the right place at the right time. Some examples: 59 Lark 2 door for $400 59 Lark 2 door wagon for $400 57 Silver Hawk for $1600 56 Sky Hawk HT for $500 51 Champion 2 door sedan for $350 58 Scotsman Wagon for $350 51 V8 Land Cruiser 4 door for $350 3 boxes of carburetors for $35 Box of NOS cloth wiring harnesses for 51 for $25 GT rear fenders, door, moulding, front fender for $35 Several V8 engine blocks and 6 engine blocks for $25 Pallet of steering columns some NOS for $25 Box of Stude fuel pumps for $25 Stude chassis with engine and trans for $25 These are just some of the lots and cars and some of the prices may be off a bit, but it gives you an idea of what was in store for the money. WOW, it was cool. Made some new friends and met up with some old ones. We had a great time. Sorry you missed it. > Well, we cleaned house at the Studebaker Auction.

Parts car? nate  Signaturereplace "roosters" with "cox" to reply. http://members.cox.net/njnagel A bargain, solid project car at $400, add $1400 shipping to you, not so much. It might bring $1000-$1500 on ebay, but not the kind of car you want to ship east. >> Well, we cleaned house at the Studebaker Auction.

These cars are California cars with little or no rust. These were stored indoors for decades. They have solid floors, solid trunks, solid rockers, good glass, and are complete cars. Door latches work great, and the Lark sedan has just one dent in the passenger door. The 2 door Wagon is just as nice. The Scotsman wagon that sold had a rust free tailgate with all the hinges in good working order, good glass and solid floors also. The Sky Hawk Hard Top is a little rougher than the Larks, but it is a rust free hard top body with all good glass, no dents, no rust and just a couple of bent corners on the hood. I was thinking of making it into a 54 HT anyway, so that would not matter. It was just one of those magical moments. I wish I could have bought the whole thing. We had gentlemans agreements that we would not cut each others throats on some items. We all won out though. > I don't know about that one, JP.

Sal, assuming this is "for resale" and you don't want to keep anything, email me some pics if you get a chance. I still haven't bought a pickup truck yet but a wagon would work just as well for what I need. nate Signaturereplace "roosters" with "cox" to reply. http://members.cox.net/njnagel N8, you are come over all the time, I'll fill you in on all the cars once we get them to Sal's. We are talking about booking a truck load to Fort Wayne. > assuming this is "for resale" and you don't want to keep anything, email > me some pics if you get a chance.

I still regret selling a rust-free original gold paint (single color) Sky Hawk 20 years ago. The man who bought it made it in to a Golden Hawk painted black and white. Paul Johnson >>...

To me, it has the cleanest lines and associated elegance of being a President.
