This truck runs great and is equipped with its original Studebaker Commander 216 flathead 6 motor, 4 speed manual transmission on the floor and a 2 speed rear axle. The bed is made of Heart Redwood (no knots) thats likely as old as the truck. The seat and interior panels are about the only thing thats not original to the truck. Perfect for business advertisement and parades with a top speed around 50 mph downhill with a tail wind. No rust just a solid old truck with decent paint that attracts a lot of attention. Speedometer and fuel gauge are not working. All window mechanisms working with a little encouragement, glass is old and has some cracks and haze.
