Famous Bullet Nose Front End
Frame off Restoration with NOS Parts
1 of 2,429 Custom Coupes Made in 1951
86,224 Original Miles
This Studebaker Business Coupe has the famous Bullet Nose front styling that made them highly identifiable. This example is finished in the correct Dove Grey over Black Leather with Grey cloth inserts. The finish of the paint work is far better than this Champion saw when new, as well as the period correct interior. This Coupe came with options like bumper guards, drivers mirror, dual wipers, horn, and full gauges.
The 51 Champion had a 169 c.i. Straight Six that produces 85 horsepower and 138 lbs of torque, mated to a three speed on the column transmission. With this power and drivetrain combination, Studebakers were able to get up to 25 mpg. Having gone through a full nut and bolt restoration, this drivetrain is like new and ready to roll. Driving this Custom Coupe is a pleasure, thanks to the meticulous and well thought out restoration the car went through. This Studebaker starts and idles easily, and runs through all gears crisply including reverse. Driving down the road the Bullet Nose tracks straight and true and floats over bumps.
A thorough TLD service and inspection has just been performed to make sure that this car meets our strict standards. This Business Coupe is one of the finest examples of 51 Studebaker out there today. Dont miss the opportunity to own a true piece of automotive history. Stop by our showroom and see how nice this Champion really is, down to The Last Detail.
