1963 Studebaker champ 8e5 Description

This is a 1963 Studebaker Champ 8E5 pick up truck that has 60,000 original miles. It was a farm truck in michigan and was parked until around 2005. It was brought down to florida and recieved a full restoration about 11 years ago but was then parked again. I purchased this truck and got it back up and running around christmas of 2015. there are still a few things that are needed to be done but the truck is solid with only a few minor spots of surface rust. I replaced the transmission due to a bad cluster gear. There will be the original transmission and a 3 speed with overdrive transmission included. I would have installed the overdrive transmission but didn't want to mess with the driveshaft. The truck now has a rebuilt transmission I purchased installed along with new u joints on the driveshaft and a new fring gear on the flywheel. the clutch has been checked out and is still in good condition. When it was restored it was repainted with color matched rhino liner for the bed of the truck and the interior floorboard was covered with the rhino liner as well. This truck is one of 2300 made and is mostly original. There are very few left on the road and these are very valuable trucks. These truck in immaculate condition sell for over $30,000 and I'm looking to get less than half of that out of this beauty.
