The early 1950s were great for bright chrome, whitewalls, and
wraparound rear glass. And the car companies were also discovering
the beauty of the hardtop coupe body style. So when you combine
that with the rarity of a 1952 Studebaker Champion, you get
something irresistible. For perspective, Ford sold nearly three
times more of the more expensive Victoria coupes than all of
Studebaker's hardtops in 1952. And we doubt you'll find a finer
surviving example of a Champion hardtop than this one. We're making
this bold proclamation because the strong motor, authentic
interior, and glossy two-tone paint combine to deliver a time
capsule feeling that also loves to cruise.
HIGHLIGHTS
*Cream white paint has a good gloss to highlight all the curves of
the 1950s sheet metal
*Mushroom tan is a nice harmonizing tone that brings added
attention to the roof
*Classic Studebaker chrome hubcaps
*Classic whitewall tires
*Highly authentic and comfy interior
*Inline-six motor (appears to be the correct 170 cubic-inch
unit)
*Column-shifted three-speed manual transmission
*Wilwood brake master cylinder
*Upgraded front disc brakes
*Owner's manual
Owning a highly authentic Studebaker is one of the genuinely great
collectibles for instant respect and attention. It's the kind of
car where you're likely not parking next to a coupe, just like it
at a car show, and therefore, people are going to ask you often to
attend their event just because of how seldom they are seen. So
this Studebaker is fun for very vintage Sunday drives and will
likely give you plenty of weekend destinations. So if you want to
get people talking about your car this weekend, call today!
