    Hi all.
    I Joined the Station Wagon ranks this weekend.
    Won't be starting on her for a while....she is rough but everything is there and very repairable
    1959 Studebaker Lark wagon......a bit of trivia..... ONLY 2 door wagons were offered in 1959 4 door not an option until 1960.

    Welcome! I love your Lark! Good luck on the restoration and hopefully she'll remain the same gorgeous color?

    I really like the two doors. Looks like a great find...where did you find it?

    Welcome to the SWF, n2hcky!

    very nice Studebaker Lark. Didn't realize the fact about the no 4-door wagons in '59. Interesting tidbit.
    Here's a couple of ads, one showing the wagon. Even mentions a rear-facing third seat was available as an option, making the Lark a 2-door, 9-PASSENGER WAGON

    Welcome aboard! I share the sentiment with my fellow members....I love the Lark. Cool body style...and an easy candidate for a small block Chevy swap.

    What ever you do to it, it will be cool because it's a 2 door wagon. Welcome.

    In 56, the President only came in 2 door form also. Like your Lark. Had one running around here a few years back, lowered, looked cool!
