Description of 1949 Studebaker |
Hello everyone and thanks for looking! I have tried to provide as much information as I can on this one of a kind truck but I am far from an expert on these things and am having to do so from memory. This pickup was my dad's project and sadly he has passed away so I can't ask him all the things I would need to know to fill out this listing properly. There are still some aspects of the truck that are unfinished so anyone looking for a truck with it's own unique character that is mechanically inclined would be a perfect match for this old girl! That being said the truck is 100% functional and ready to drive as it sits. However, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have and I will do my best to answer them if at all possible! For sale today I have a late 40's Studebaker Pickup! I believe it is a 1949 year model. This truck was bought in extremely rough shape and has been redone as a one of a kind Ratrod by my father! He loved tinkering on this thing and it absolutely oozes his one of a kind personality! His intention was never to attempt a factory correct restoration but instead to have some fun and make a completely unique vehicle that turns heads and is a blast to drive! STARTING ON THE OUTSIDE:
UNDER THE HOOD: The truck was purchased without an engine and a Second Generation LT1 from a late 90's Chevrolet Camaro has been swapped in its place! This engine has been completely rebuilt and had a little pep added to it's step although I can not remember what modifications were done. I do know it was stripped, and sent to a machine shop to be blueprinted and have any issues fixed before being professionally rebuilt! The truck has been wired with a complete Electronic Control Unit (ECU) system and the engine is fuel injected and computer controlled! This thing starts and runs like a champ everytime! No worrying about a stubborn carbureted engine here! IN THE CAB: This is the area my dad was working on when he passed away so everything is not complete here but is in good enough shape to drive without issue and could be worked on as the mood hit you.
That wraps up what I know about the truck. Taking a look at all the pictures should answer most questions but again if you have any questions PLEASE ask and if I know or can find out the answer I will do my best to! ONCE YOU BUY: A deposit of $500.00 will be required through Paypal within 48 hours of the time of sale and arrangements for payment must be made within 7 days. I am willing to work with serious buyers to a reasonable extent to accommodate their needs. This is being sold as a LOCAL PICKUP only but if the buyer really wants it shipped and makes all the necessary arrangements I can be available for pickup by a commercial hauler as well. Again, THE BUYER is responsible for coming to get this truck. MAKE ME AN OFFER BECAUSE ALL SERIOUS OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED!!! Thanks! |
