1947 Studebaker Champion - $11,995 - LOS ANGELES, CA - 1947 Studebaker Champion Deluxe, Southern California post-war classic car in great original condition. 6 cylinder, rare overdrive transmission, split windows. Clean interior. This car has received a nice mechanical reconditioning: New brake system, fuel lines, new tires, new clutch, newly rebuilt transmission, newer clock, recently painted two-tone paint (burgundy and black top) with clear coat, newer battery. Newly installed original AM radio that works. It took several months to delicately re-craft all these parts. Also, the buyer will get a set of original wheel skirts. Heater works. Vacuum wiper system. Rebuilt radiator/new hoses, thermostat. Less than 200 miles on tires.NO ACCIDENTS, NO ENGINE SMOKE, NO BODY RUST.
All windows roll down nicely. Doors closed snugly. Engine starts as it should. 100% Original upholstery- it has some tears on rear seats & interior door panels; hubcaps dented but clean; It has original spare tire, original tire jack, shop manual, owners manual, and the sales brochure. All dashboard gauges work nicely. Odometer seems to be stuck. I would rate it 8 to 8.5 out of 10. ONE OF A KIND. I believe I am the 2nd owner. First owner was an aerospace engineer who really took care of this car for many years (he passed away); I also kept this car in a garage and I took care of it. YOU WILL NOT FIND a Studebaker Champion in this condition. If you are looking for an elegant car to drive in town and not to worry about complex repairs, then this is your car. I will be glad to send more pictures and refer you to my mechanic for more details about this nice vehicle. Priced well below market value. Clean California title.
