R-1859 R1, originally white w/ turquoise interior, Auto, PW, A/C, AM radio. Car was purchased new at Townsend Studebaker in Riverside, California in April, 1963 by my father, Frank Libuse. The car was parked in the 1980's with about 135,000 miles on it after the brakes went out and has not been started since. It sat outside from the early 1980's to 2003 and is in need of total restoration. It has been garaged since 2003. It is complete except for headlight covers and badges, which were removed when the car was painted black in about 1967, but everything is in pretty sad shape. I hope someday to restore it as it was when I got to drive it to the high school prom at age 16.
