in my possession is a book 'Erskine, Albert Russel (1918) History of the Studebaker Corporation', possibly published by the Poole Brothers, Chicago. It's mainly focused on the economic side, but towards the end is a small history of various vehicles produced by the company. Of particular interest are two of them: - 1902 Studebaker Runabout Link to "theantiquarium.com" Link to "forum.studebakerdriversclub.com" - 1908 Studebaker Victoria Phaeton https://www.flickr.com/photos/autohistorian/51530537788/ In this 1905 brochure https://www.ebay.ca/itm/285049989434 currently up for sale is it possible to see the various body styles; Runabout (basic), Stanhope (slightly more expensive) and Victoria-Phaeton (the most expensive of the open top models). Runabout (= Straight body): https://www.ebay.ca/itm/285049989434 (7th and 8th picture) Stanhope (= Straight body with a twist at the back): https://www.ebay.ca/itm/285049989434 (6th and 9th picture) Victoria Phaeton (= The seating compartment is well rounded if one have a look from the outside): https://www.ebay.ca/itm/285049989434 (4th picture) Conclusion: I'd say this has a Victoria Phaeton body rather than a Runabout. -- Last edit: 2024-07-30 10:28:35 |
