Vehicle Description
Specialty classics are usually out of reach for most of us, so
that's why you'll want to pay attention to this 1937 Studebaker
Dictator. It's a distinct pre-war machine that has been
updated/upgraded inside and out, and it's offered at quite an
obtainable price.
A '30s era Studebaker is already intriguing just because it's a
rare sight on the classic car scene today. South Bend made quite a
stylish machine. The pointed nose with torpedo-like floating
headlights has an attractive first impression; suicide doors are
always fashionable; and the flowing rear fender line even extends
past the trunk. And the details are great, too, like the body
crease that wraps around the rear window and how the grille
seamlessly extends along the hood. But those are what Studebaker
made direct from the factory, and you can instantly tell that this
is far from just classic restored to original condition. The
metallic element in the steel blue paint, bright dual exhaust tips,
15-inch alloys, and much more announce this is a cool custom
machine.
Inside are more instant indications of custom work. The seats are
borrowed from a Buick that are half a century younger. Not only
does the color coordinate nicely with the exterior, but also the
pillow-top velour makes this quite a comfortable place to spend
some time. In fact, this pre-war car has been updated with plenty
of comfort features, including power front seats, power windows,
power locks, and an AM/FM/CD/XM stereo. So with ample space to
spread out in the front and back, and all these modern upgrades,
you know this is a great classic for family and friends. But even
when it's just you driving solo, you'll appreciate features like
the wood-trimmed steering wheel and upgraded gauges also donated
from a more modern Buick.
The Buick also donated its heart to this classic Studebaker. The
3.8-liter V6 is not only larger than the original motor, but it
makes parts availability far easier today. This motor comes with
the right added components, including an aluminum radiator,
electric fan, and topped with a four-barrel carburetor. Out on the
road, this one has a far improved ride thanks to upgraded easy
driving features like power steering, power brakes, an automatic
transmission, and an independent front suspension.
This Studebaker is a complete and thoughtful custom with
head-turning appeal. Rarely is something this unique also so
obtainable, so hurry up and call today!
