I was told this is a 1931 Studebaker, but keep getting conflicting info (Pontiac Oakland, Nash/Rambler). It has a roll down rear window, a centered dash, a rounded shaped "W" on the rear shell. The serial number is: 31-Q-3 718   For more photos, see my profile.

That's a tough one. I even thought it might be Hudson. That W-shaped bead on the rear deck is pretty distinctive and is probably the key to identifying it. It's definitely ca.-1933 (give or take a year).


There should be a special award for the person who brings this car back. It has great lines, visible beyond the rust, but I bet it would be worth it.

Thanks Angelo. We did learn it is a Studebaker, ca. 1932.

We just got the original frame from this Studebaker. The partial plate on the frame reads Rockne. We believe it is a 3 window (2 door) coupe Rockne Studebaker, 1931 from the serial number taken off the shell (pictured). I will eventually post pictures of the frame.

Pictures of the Studebaker frame and a fraction of the Rockne plate are uploaded now.
