This 1960 Studebaker Lark VI has a great legacy that proved that
even economy cars had style back in the day. And with its sharp but
honest presentation - right down to the correct motor - you're
going to love this classic.
Black is a great color when done right. It's a respray later in
life that retains a good gloss to show off the quality fit of the
classic lines. And you want a little added distinction, because the
stock look of a Lark is totally unique to Studebaker. The front has
a grille so imposing that they would use it on the trucks. And
there's a line of trim that starts here, wraps around the front,
and loops all the way around the back. This same trim also
showcases a stylish kick-up in the rear fender and the artful
design of the trunk. And there's more great detail work with the
wraparound rear window, tastefully integrated tail light design,
and even the bright chrome bumpers. It all proves that Studebaker
really had style.
The interior continues this car's stock style with a handsome
setup. The red is vibrant, and there is plenty of black accenting
to coordinate with the exterior. The appearance is like a time
capsule from the 1960s, but from the moment you sit down, you can
feel that there was a nice investment in keeping this feeling far
fresher. Everything just feels correct on this one, right down to
the trunk with correct spare and jack. The classic dual-spoke
steering wheel only has skinny stalks for the gearshift and turn
signals on the column. So you get a great view of the gauges, all
the surrounding controls, and the open road.
Under the hood is more of the honest presentation that makes this
car fantastic. As a Lark VI, it comes with the correct-style 170
cubic-inch straight-six. These were popular when new because they
were sturdy cars, and the way this continues to fire up and run
feels like a part of that legacy. And out on the road, it really
does provide the full classic car experience, right down to the
column-shifted three-speed manual transmission.
The sale even comes with a host of spare components. The Lark was
an economy car when new, and the price today still proves it knows
the value of a dollar. So don't miss out on a terrific vintage
deal. The car is currently being sold on a clean Tennessee title
from 2018. It does show a prior salvage on a title search from 2013
but the reason is unknown. Call today!!!
