Little known in Europe, the Studebaker brand was synonymous with car manufacture in the United States. The first car of Studebaker, debuted in 1902, and due to lack of resources, they left the automotive market in 1966. During their run, they brought multiple successful models that have gone down in history, including the Champion, which spanned five generations. Due to its affordable price, quality materials, and rugged construction, the Champion proved to be an ideal family car. This well-preserved garage-kept example of the 1954 Studebaker Champion Coupe comes to you from Florida with original documentation available. It was bought as a pair along with a Studebaker President (also listed) and has been restored to original using period correct components.
The rust-free body shell of this 1954 Studebaker Champion is painted in white and complemented by Studebaker emblems. This car has undergone a complete frame-off restoration and sits on classic whitewall tires. The Champion features a body-on-frame construction, and the rear fenders were bolted to the body, unlike most cars in the ’50s which had welded fenders. The interior is done in red with an eye-catching 3-spoke steering wheel finished in white. The bench leather seats on the front and back provide comfortable seating for six passengers. The minimalistic metal dash comprises three gauges, a radio, toggle switch controls, and a glove box.
Under the hood of this 1954 Studebaker Champion is Studebaker’s 169ci straight-six engine which puts out a decent 85 horsepower at 4000 rpm and 138 lb-ft of torque at 2000rpm. Power is sent to the wheels via an automatic transmission.
Studebakers are among the more under-appreciated classics of the 1940s and 50s. With distinctive styling and fewer survivors than their counterparts from the “Big 3”, a classic Studebaker is a very desirable car to own. The Champion was produced from 1939 to 1958 across 5 generations. The 3rd generation (1947-52) was the last full-size Champion (the later models were mid-sized). It was available as either a 2- or 4-door sedan, a 2-door convertible or a 2-door coupe (the station wagon version never made it past the prototype stage) and captured the market well, accounting for over 65% of Studebaker sales in its first year.

Studebaker is one of those legendary American automakers that’s long gone but never forgotten. Our automotive history is full of brands that gave us iconic machines—cars that still stir emotion decades later in a way modern tech-focused brands may never match. Today’s vehicles are fast and advanced, but will they inspire the same connection fifty years from now? Will they even survive that long?

That’s why a seventy-two-year-old build like this 1953 Studebaker Commander Pro Street build still exists—and still turns heads. Based out of Hiawatha, Iowa, this restomod has been transformed into a true street-strip performer, featuring a massive LS6 V8 with the current owner reporting just under 700 miles since completion. It’s a striking custom that’s ready for its next run.
