Purchased car summer of 2011 and have had a great time. i am six foot four and fit in car just fine. has an aftermarket smaller steering wheel that gives plenty of leg room. Car has run good the whole time. cold blooded on cool days. has good oil pressure and does not overheat. I have however in 2012. repaired the tranny seals. new slave cylinder. inspected clutch since it was apart anyways. new throwout bearing etc. synchromesh tranny does not leak anymore. rebuilt the original starter and alternator. tires have 500 miles on them if that and had the brakes reworked. Car is ready for summer fun. notice i have 13 inch on front and 14 inch rims on back. previous owner did that. i like the stance also and have kept it that way. I have the 2 other 13 inch rims for it and repair manuals cd rom etc. Top works fine. has no holes in it. clear back window. Exhaust is in fine shape. has a great sound although not stainless. Car is not equipped with overdrive. i have 3 small videos on youtube. They are titled 1966twg . 966twg2 and 1966twg3 which is newer and shows the underside of car. One video keeps talking about Studebakers. I was going to trade for one and it did not work out. However. if you have one that's a possibility also. This is my wife's favorite car and does not want me to sell. She says this is better then your 3 Studebakers. Wisconsin and ragtops are a short season. and that is probably a main reason for me selling.  Has an electric fuel pump in it and all the gauges work. Car has mild issues. bumpers have scratches and waves (on front) and one front grille chrome piece needs changing (ding). I have seen stainless bumpers on ebay. decent pricing. if that is an issue. Chrome grille piece and be found also from the major parts suppliers of Sunbeam parts online. One ding near gas filler. small tear in drivers seat and no keys for the door locks (nothing to lock. top is down 90% of time). Rock solid. floors great. has black sprayed rustproofing on it. Nice solid car. nice driver.

RESPONSIBLE FOR SETTING UP SHIPPING WITH COMPANY. HAPPY TO HELP SHIPPER. I AM VERY FLEXIBLE.
