    ebay has studebaker parts.. sometimes even parts cars. Are u looking for trim pieces and such or mechanical parts/brake parts etc?

    Both, I’m looking for info on all parts. I would prefer not to use ebay because you can’t tell exactly what you’re getting. Depending on how things work out in the next several months I’ll be able to tell you more specifically but for now if you have any info for any type of parts that would be great! thumbsup.gif

    Ive bought quite a few parts on ebay, if its a high dollar restoration on a rare care i usually prefer not to and see the part in person but sometimes ya have to go the internet route. For mechanical parts like engine parts, carbs, carb kits, fuel pumps, brake parts, lights etc I use a company called Kanter Antique Auto parts, you pay a little more on some parts but the quality is well worth it. You can search online or request a free catalog just go to http://www.kanter.com and check it out. thumbsup.gif

    Van’s Auto Salvage just outside of Waupun might have some if you look for used parts. I still have the spare tire from my 63 Hawk if you need a wheel and it fits.

    Vans auto salvage has a ton of classic cars rotting away.. wish i could save em all but who can, a good chunk have rotting frames but nothing that i havent fixed before. Alot of nice sedan bodies. Went there last summer and u have to look real hard in the trees and brush and u find some neat cars. Not too bad on parts prices either. Do u happen to know if there open year round monte?

    They go to different hours/days for the winter. Best time to go is late October or November and after the snow melts in March to early April. Too many weeds and bugs to go during the summer unless you know where and what you’re looking for. Spent many hours wandering around there and pulling parts.

    If I go it will probably November, hopefully the weather will cooperate with me
