1950 Champion Convertible.  Has been in the family since 1963. Stored
1963-1995 most of that in a dry garage.  Some work done, needs more.
Original condition.  Runs and drives but has developed a knock in the newly
rebuilt engine.  Would prefer to sell to restorer rather than rodder.
Asking $6,500 obo.
I do not frequent this newsgroup anymore so CALL for info. No calls after
8PM Mountain time.  Leave a message if we don't answer and I'll call you
back.  719-578-838 one.  Or email for2003 -at- pcisys . net.

No rodders?  Rod this, butthead!!!!  Karma came back to you and put a
knock in your engine for being so narrow-minded, I hope the new owner
finds it to be a $0.50 cent repair and less to 1/2 hour to fix it.

Hey go easy on the guy. You know what the dealeo is with some of these
guys. The fun part is to buy the car with the "intent" to restore,
then send him pix of the car at the local Hot Rod car show with a BBC
and a blower sticking out of the hood and the widest set of M/T slicks
under the rearend.

Well, to be fair, a '51 would be much easier to rod, at least if you're
using the Studebaker parts bin.

It was not my intent to offend anyone.  If I did I assure you it was
absolutely not intentional.  I am just trying to sell the car for the family
and honor my late father's wishes.
Best regards,  Tim

unfortueately you unintentionally got into a hot issue between
restorers and modifiers and many vehicles have been scrapped to
prevent modification because of narrow minded people.  I love old car
styles but like newer vehicle convience and reliability and yes I know
my spelling sucks.  God Bless.

Tim, in the many years of watching the newsgroup I have maybe seen 2-3
vehicles actually sell to those who frequent this place.  Your best bet is
to place it on E-Bay and let the restorers and modifiers fight it out among
themselves.
