SUMMARY

Sympathetically restored, 4-litre, 2R11, ¾-Tonne Pick-Up ready to enjoy.

DESCRIPTION

  • The Studebaker 2R-Series was a range of light and medium-duty trucks built from April 1948 until the end of 1953 
  • The 2R/11 was rated at ¾-tonnes and was powered by an L-head, 245.6ci (4-litre), six-cylinder with 102bhp mated to a 3-speed column change gearbox
  • Dating from 1953, this fabulous example has been fully restored and is now finished in gleaming Norway Green
  • Lovely attention to detail, bodywork stripped back to bare metal, chassis, wheels and bumpers stripped, powder-coated and then painted
  • Retrimmed in brown leather with a brand new roof liner and new door cards
  • The engine has been refreshed, a new carburettor fitted, new wiring and new LED lighting bringing this super 1950s Pick-Up bang up to date
  • The rear bed is fitted with a brand new bespoke laminated wooden liner with the Studebaker emblem behind the cab, a nice touch
  • The Pick-Up has been treated to new rubber all round and is supplied with a small file of receipts for some of the works completed
  • With so many early Chevy trucks out on the market, why not stand out from the crowd with this stunning Studebaker
