1922 Studebaker Model El Special 6 Touring
Studebaker was an American wagon and automobile manufacturer based in South Bend, Indiana, with a building at 1600 Broadway, Times Square, Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Founded in 1852 and incorporated in 1868 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, the firm was originally a coachbuilder, manufacturing wagons, buggies, carriages and harnesses.
Studebaker entered the automotive business in 1902 with electric vehicles and in 1904 with gasoline vehicles, all sold under the name "Studebaker Automobile Company". Until 1911, its automotive division operated in partnership with the Garford Company of Elyria, Ohio, and after 1909 with the E-M-F Company and with the Flanders Automobile Company. The first gasoline automobiles to be fully manufactured by Studebaker were marketed in August 1912. Over the next 50 years, the company established a reputation for quality, durability and reliability.
After an unsuccessful 1954 merger with Packard (the Studebaker-Packard Corporation) failed to solve chronic postwar cashflow problems, the 'Studebaker Corporation' name was restored in 1962, but the South Bend plant ceased automobile production on December 20, 1963, and the last Studebaker automobile rolled off the Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, assembly line on Saint Patrick's Day, March 17, 1966.
This very nice EL-6 Touring is one of the nicest examples we have seen. The car is very nicely restored with high quality materials throughout. The Nickel Plating is exceptional on this car, and correct in every manner. The Full Leather interior is in very good condition, and the car presents very well overall and is really ready for any Show Field. Powered by the Legendary Studebaker 6 and fitted with an Overdrive this is the perfect Tour car for Nickel Era Tours. Offered out of long term ownership, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special car-a car that has been well cared for - a treasured heirloom.
