1959 Studebaker Lark Sedan.  Vehicle is part of a deceased estate.

The information available to the seller indicates that the car was a direct import in right hand drive. The lark was coated with oil to prevent rust and stored in a farm shed for over 35 years.

 The V8 engine was started and ran for over half an hour on a regular basis but the car was not driven out of the storage shed during the 35 years. The body work appears to be very sound, without dents or damage and the interior upholstery is in good condition.

A reasonable offer will be accepted.  The car is located in Mackay, Queensland.

Studebaker 1951 v8 Commander Convertible. Factory Right Hand Drive
extremely rare Car.

 After extensive inquires, to the best of our knowledge this is the only
known 1951 Factory RHD Commander Convertible in Australia. 
After completing a 1951 Studebaker Champion Convertible the very
dedicated new owner made substantial inquiries when he purchased the ‘1951 Commander’ in the late 1990’s. 

There was very limited information found about it’s
life here in Australia. The car was found under a lantana bush in 1980
and taken to Rockhampton where, unfortunately little was done for
nearly 20 years due to the owner’s health.  A major restoration was
started in 2000 and took 3,500 hours to complete as the car was in
poor condition. The rareness of the car was the main inspiration to
restore this car. 

Since completion of the restoration in 2003 the car has been
featured in magazines in Australia and overseas. The Convertible was chosen
in 2012 for the Olympic Athlete’s Brisbane Welcome Home Parade.

Because of the car’s rarity, it was restored with originality in mind. Upgraded
modifications were fitted using later model Studebaker larger brakes and
a PBR power booster for safety and an 8volt system.

RECENT WORK – New high quality convertible top and carpet, New laminated
windscreen and rubber.  Brake system overhaul.

There is a photo record and list of work done for the restoration from
when the car was found under a lantana bush in 1980 to the completion of
the restoration in 2003.

When the car is driven to events and displays it attracts an enormous
amount of attention. The new owner will not only be very proud of this
car and they will also be asked many questions from the numerous admirers of
the spectacular car.

1947 Studebaker Champion.

This is a complete car. My late father started to restore it prior to him passing away. The motor & running gear have been restored. The motor was running approximately 2 years ago, the rear guards, rear & front doors have been stripped, prepped & undercoated. We need to sell the car quite urgently as my mother is moving into a retirement village in November.

I would love to finish it off myself, but I am into Ford Model T’s & it is not my cup of tea. Hopefully, someone has the time to restore it to it’s former glory & enjoy it. The car is located in Hervey Bay. Any questions please call Andrew 0422373581 or email ajscott1923@gmail.com   –   Price negotiable  $7,500.00

Dear Sirs,
I’m just sending you this note to advise that I have a 1915 Studebaker Model
EC six-cylinder five passenger touring car for sale if any of your club
members are interested, although I realize that most interest is probably in
the more attractive and practical models of the 1950s and 1960s.
The car was originally retrieved in 1967 from a property near Tambo in
central western Queensland. It had been stored under a station homestead
until the late 1950s but was then pushed out into a nearby paddock during
renovations to the building. Unfortunately, it then spent a decade in the
open, with obvious deterioration as a result, but has been in dry storage,
albeit largely disassembled, since being brought back to Brisbane.
It remains substantially complete apart from generator/distributor and top,
and disintegrated upholstery. Most body panels are restorable or good enough
to provide patterns where replacement is needed, but the car would require a
total and extensive restoration after such long exposure to the elements,
which would suit a multiskilled and courageous enthusiast but would not be a
project for the faint hearted. Sadly, I number myself among the latter, and
age and ill health has shattered any illusions I may have had of eventually
taking it on as a retirement project. Original owner’s manual, parts
catalogue and sales brochures are included. Attachments show the car during
recovery in 1967.
The price is $4000, the car is located at southside Brisbane, and I’m happy
to provide further details or arrange inspection if there is any interest. I
can be contacted by email at arcadia45@bigpond.com or by message.

Kind Regards,
Dennis Neilsen
