1930 Studebaker President FH. 100% Original Car, Running. Barn Find True Classic
Description
1930 Studebaker President FH 4 Door Sedan. 8 Cylinder, 3 speed manual on the floor.
Barn Find 100% original. Nice solid foundation for restoration. Or simply drive it as is. It runs and drives.
It is possible that the engine had been rebuilt some 20 years ago by the previous owner. When we got the car it had the carburetor and the distributor out in a box, engine had new plugs and new oil, children of the PO, who were selling the car for the estate thought he may have rebuilt the motor before passing and that was why the carburetor & distributor were off of the engine. Hearsay, but it is all we know. It runs nicely as you can see in the video. So we rebuilt the carburetor and distributor, new gas line, gas tank removed and flushed, so it has a nice clean and solid fuel system.
All original wood floor, doors close and fit beautifully. Solid and straight. All hardware is accounted for and on the car with the exception of the two spare tire hold downs on the fenders and the air cleaner. Never did find those.
It has a few dents, scratches etc. Top needs to be replaced. Needs minor fender repair on front right fender and dent in left rear quarter panel. Both easy fixes. Virtually no rust including surface rust. The car lived most of it's life inside and if it hadn't been for birds doing their thing on the hood, paint would have been salvageable. Some of the areas where the paint was still pretty much intact was rubbed out and it looked good.These are current photos take 07/16/2017
Original glass is perfect, not a crack or chip anywhere I can see. Windows function, door handles all function inside and out. 4 new Coker Firestone tires. All lights work, gauges work. It has a brand new battery on the 16th of July 2017
