For sale in our Dallas/Fort Worth showroom is this 1931 Studebaker
Model 54. Also known as the Studebaker Six, or Studebaker Standard
Six, the Model 54 was the entry level Studebaker. However, they
were named the Standard Six as Studebaker believed that their
vehicles were the standard that other manufactures should be held
to when making their vehicles. It has been said that Studebaker's
offered the quality of a Cadillac, but for the price of a Ford, and
Studebaker had a reputation for building quality and reliable
vehicles. With this example still on the road more than 85 years
after it was made, we think that reputation is more than deserved.
This Model 54 is equipped with what is believed to be the original
205 CID straight 6 cylinder engine. This motor produced an
impressive, for the time, 70 hp. While also available as a 4 door
sedan, roadster, 4 door open touring, and 2 passenger coupe, this
model is the 4 passenger coupe with the always cool rumble seat in
the rear. Since this vehicle has been garaged since it was
purchased new in 1931, restoration needs were kept to a minimum.
The vehicle was repainted in 1966 and reupholstered in 1967. The
most major work that was completed was a repaired cylinder head in
1998, with receipts for the work done. Other than that, this
pampered vehicle has just been lovingly cared for. If you are a fan
of Pre-War American cars, but want to stand out from the Ford's and
Chevy's, then your Chariot has arrived. Studebaker's are getting
more and more rare every year, especially when you get back to the
very old ones like this. To view this vehicle in greater detail
