1930 Studebaker President Roadster

Our late 1930 Studebaker President Roadster, the only one known left in existence. We bought it
   out of a museum in 1973. Dr. Rust, myself (Doc Hemp) & Darrell Dye ran it in the Great American Race in
   1984 & drove it around the Indy 500 track before the race began that year. (A story in its self!)

This 1930 FH Studebaker President Roadster is the last example of its vintage known to be in
existence. The car was built in late 1930. It has a 125 inch wheelbase and a 336 cu. in. straight 8
engine that delivers 115 horsepower. In 1929 a Studebaker Roadster, similar to this one was the
official Indianapolis 500 pace car. 

                                      Some interesting features and options: 

                      Port and starboard "navigation lights" on the running boards 
                        Port and starboard "gem reflectors" on the headlights 
                             Sidemount spares, a rare $60 factory option 
             Custom paint: the car was delivered primed but unpainted to the dealer, who would
                                 have it painted any color for $75
