Description

This listing is for a very scarce and exceptionally nice original pickup box for a 1937 Studebaker Coupe Express pickup truck. Unfortunately, the tailgate for this gem disappeared a long time ago. There are 4 tiny rust holes in the floor but no other rusted out spots I can find.
Two very helpful Studebaker Coupe Express enthusiasts emailed me recently to let me know that the sizes of the boxes were not always the same during the three years of production. The inside of this box measures 48-5/8" wide between the sides at the back. The floor inside this box measures 69-3/4" long.
The overall length of the sides on this box is 73" not counting the latch bracket. I hope this helps and you can tell me what year of truck this fits.
Please let me know what years of trucks this will and will not work correctly on.
A vey kind Studebaker Coupe Express enthusiast just email me and let me know that this box with the 73" long sides is only correct for use on the 1937 model because the 1938 and 1939 models had a 4" long box with the sides 77" long rather than 73" long like this box has. I recently read on the internet that Studebaker shipped some units as a cab and chassis only so the customer could install a custom box or flatbed of some sort. This box would be ideal for use on such a vehicle. Please let me know if you know of anyone who reproduces the tailgate so I can add a note here.

The last 4 photos of this listing show the small rust spots in the floor. The first of the 4 shows a spot in the left front corner of the box. The second of the 4 shows a rust blister forming near the left rear corner of the box. The third of the 4 shows a rust spot along the middle of the right side. The fourth of the 4 shows a spot near the mounting hole along the middle of the left side.
Someone has a Coupe Express somewhere that is either missing it's original box or has one that is in terrible condition. This box would be a dream come true for the owner of that vehicle.
The fenders are in rough shape but are better than none at all if you don't have any. The left fender has a loose piece torn off of the front of it but it is included and shown in one of the photos.
I have a lot more photos I can email to you if you send me your regular email address. Please do not ask or expect me to send them through the eBay email system. I can only send 5 at a time and that system significantly reduces the size of the photos.
I am on the road now and plan to be home in a day of two. I will then try to turn this box upside down and get some photos from the bottom.
I listed this as being for "local pickup only" to keep this listing simple. There is a good chance I may be able to coordinate safe and economical delivery depending on where you live and how soon you want or need this gem.
I will add more photos and information soon. Thanks a lot, Bob Woodburn      4O6-799-I847     in Bozeman Montana
PLEASE  NOTE :
I also have a nice 1940-1947 Chevrolet pickup box listed here on eBay. I just bought an NOS 1950-1957 International short pickup box with perfect fenders and tailgate that I plan to list here soon.
