1965 Studebaker Daytona 2 Door Sports Sedan

This is a very late model Studebaker Daytona Super Sports 2 door sedan, and one of only 1626 Sports Sedans built, and therefore likely one of very few still remaining today. This car was purchased some years ago and according to the owner who was selling it, It was parked in a shed in 1972 on a farm in Portales New Mexico, and lived there until it was sold in 2005. 

The car is unrestored as you can see, however, given how rare this car is, it would be worth a full restoration to factory spec. As a late model it benefited from the Cheverolet 283ci V8 engine.
