We purchased 10 acres in Bosque County and this was on the property. Removed the cedar and rolled it out. I believe it's a '49 Studebaker.

that is sweet! In the right hands, that could be turned into something really special. No matter what, that paint job just needs some clearcoat. You can't recreate patina like that.

Great find

Put that in a flower bed with the American flag on a pole. A few drought tolerant plants such as yuccas and mesquite trees, nothing is more Texan-American.

Do you think it was in service later than the 70’s? Reason I ask is because are those plastic blinker lenses? They don’t look faded/cracked, and looks to be a 7 digit phone number on the fender. I’m an 80’s kid, not sure when they went to 7 digits. That is very cool.

Very cool, indeed. Reminds me of something I'd see found and fixed up on BareKnuckleBinder - (fellow Texan) - not sure if any of his videos would help you get it going, but they might...

Obviously can't see much from the pics but looks solid and straight. That'd be a fun one to get running, add a bed and drive here and there. Probably be easier to do some sort of resto mod then full blown restoration. I don't know anything about Studebakers though.

Our phone # went to seven digits in the late 60’ s I believe. I remember the original #, ID3-5005. The ID part was for the Idlewood exchange in SW Houston.

Rural areas were later. I remember using a five digit number in the early 80’s on a party line in Holland TX around 82…

Correct. I worked on upgrading from 10 party to 4 party lines in Northern New Mexico in early 80’s.
