Hello- I am a new guy from Ohio. I just picked up a 1940 Stude
business coupe. She's missing the running boards, and if anybody has
any or any leads to find a set, please let me know. Thanks.

Well, I have a '40 Champion business coupe, and it never came with running boards. I'm not
absolutely certain that the Commander and President were built the same way, but I expect
they were.

Running boards were a $12.50 option in that year for Champions.
