Description of 1958 Studebaker Scotsman wagon

HI I AM SELLING MY 58 STUDEBAKER SCOTSMAN WAGON. IF YOUR READING THIS I DONT HAVE TO TELL YOU HOW RARE THIS WAGON IS ; ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION. IT RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL FLAT HEAD, SIX CYLINDER ENGINE. THIS ENGINE WAS REBUILT BY ITS PREVIOUS OWNER ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. HE HAD OWNED THIS CAR FOR APPROXIMATLY 20 YEARS. WHEN I BOUGHT IT HE WAS STILL ENJOYING IT AND IT WAS NOT A BARN FIND. THE ENGINE RUNS REALLY STRONG. IT STARTS RIGHT UP WITH A LITTLE CHOKE EVERYTIME. THERE ARE NO NOISES,LEAKS OR SMOKE. ITS A CRUISER NOT A MUSCLE CAR. THE 3 SPEED ON THE COLUM IS WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE ORIGINAL AS WELL. IT SHIFTS THRU THE GEARS WITH EASE AND THERE ARE NO SYNCRO NOISES. THE CLUTCH FEELS NORMAL AS WELL. THE OVER DRIVE WORKS BUT FROM TIME TO TIME THE CABLE GETS STUCK. MAY EVENTUALLY NEED A NEW CABLE. THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS COMPLETE AND VERY TIDY.
I HAD THIS WAGON PAINTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO AND ITS NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING. OBVIOUSLY BETTER THEN NEW. THIS WAS ONLY WAS OFFERED IN ONLY 3 COLORS WHEN NEW. THEY WERE GRAY, BLUE AND GREEN. THEY WERE VERY DULL. THIS WAGON WAS ORIGINALLY BLUE. I HAVE REDONE THE WAGON IN BLACK AND ITS REALLY REALLY SHINEY. THE JOB WAS DONE IN A PROFESSIONAL SHOP AND IT HAS ALOT OF CLEAR. MOST WOULD RECOGNIZE THAT NOT MANY ANTIQUE VECHILES CAN BE DONE IN BLACK. ITS GOT TO HAVE A GOOD BODY WITH MINIMAL BODY WORK. AS IT WAS, THIS BODY WAS EXCELLENT AND OF COURSE IT CAME OUT AMAZING. IF YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH THERE WAS VERY LITTLE CHROME ON THIS CAR. THERE WAS NO CROME AROUND THE WINDOWS, NO CHROME BEZELS AND NO CHROME RAIN GUTTERS. THEY ONLY CAME WITH A STAMPED CHROME GRILL, CHROME DOOR HANDELS AND CHROME BUMPERS. I HAVE RETAINED THEM AND ALTHOUGH I BELIEVE THEM TO BE ORIGINAL I CAN TELL YOU THEY ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. ALL THE RUBBER AROUNT THE WINDOWS IS EXCELLENT AS WELL, ALTHOUGH I WONDER IF THEY WERE REPLACED AT SOME TIME. ALL THE GLASS HAS THE ORIGINAL STAMPING AND THEY ALL ORERATE AS THEY SHOULD.
THE INTERIOR OF THERE VECHILES ARE AS SPARTIN AS YOU CAN IMAGINE. THE INTERIOR IS VERY BASIC AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I AM NOT SURE IF IT WAS EVER REDONE. THE SEATS DO NOT HAVE ANY RIPS OR TEARS. THE DOOR PANELS AND SIDE PANELS ALL THE WAY THRU THE CAR ARE STILL THERE AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS WELL. THE DASH IS ORIGINAL AND AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE PICTURES ITS EXCELLENT AS WELL THE HEADLINER IS PERFECT AS WELL AS THE VISORS SO I DONT KNOW IF IT WAS EVER REPACED. THE STEERING WHEEL IS ORGINAL AND WAS COVERED WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR. I REMOVED IT AND FOUND IT TO BE EXCELLENT. THE CARPET IS WORN AND IF I WAS KEEPING THIS WAGON I WOULD REPLACE THEM. THE SPEEDOMETER GAGE "WHICH IS CALLED THE CYCLOPS EYE" IS LOCATED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS VERY INTRESTING. IT ROTATES AS THE CAR GAINS SPEED AND IT STILL WORKS PERFECT, AS DOES THE ODOMETER. THE TEMP LAMP, OIL PRESSUE AND AMP LAMPS STILL WORK BUT NOT SURE ABOUT THE GAS GAGE, AS ITS NOT A GAGE IS A LAMP. ALL THE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS ON THIS VECHILE WORK, INCLUDING THE DASH LITES.
THIS IS A SOLID CAR. THERE IS NOT A DROP OF RUST ON THE ROCKER. THE FRAME AND UNDERSIDE IS EXCELLENT. WHEN I HAD THE WAGON PAINTED IT REQUIRED VERY LITTLE BODY WORK. ACTUALLY UNDER $500.
I HAVE TAKEN THIS WAGON TO SEVERAL SHOWS THIS SUMMER AND IT ATTRACTED CROWDS OF PEOPLE. MOST PEOPLE HAD NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS. I RECIEVED MANY COMPLIMENTS ON THIS WAGON. WHEN I BOUGHT THIS WAGON I RE-DID THE BRAKES AND IT STOPS ON A DIME. I ALSO BOUGHT BRAND NEW COKER WIDE WHITES AND THEY LOOK FANTASTIC. I ENVISION THIS VECHILE AT THE BEACH IN CALIFORNIA WITH A COUPLE BOARDS ON TOP OR IN MANY CAR SHOWS.
