This is great presentation of the Studebakers' over time. My Daddy, had a 1964 Green Lark. He almost bought an Avanti but he got the back seat so I could play on our long travels. He even had front seat belts put in before the states/ government required them. I got it when he passed in 1973. He also left some $$$$ and his hospital bills to me to pay. I still miss my Daddy. And the Lark. My husband sold it... in the 1970ies. Gas was expensive in those years. Now look at the cost of gas. Thanks I am saving this KZitem video. Beverley MacKrell Brazelle 2024 ❤

Very impressive collection, my favorite Studebaker era definetely is the 1930's till the first half of the 1950's. Funny thing was with those bullet nose models, they looked so odd when seen from the side, that you couldn't tell for sure what was the front end, what the rear end, so some owners added a little plastic propellor on the bullet nose, there you have it, THIS is the front !

My dad loved Studebakers. Fortunately, there was a local Studebaker Club that sponsored annual car shows where we could admire many models. Wonderful to see all these examples. Wish he could have toured this. Collection collection

Thanks for sharing! I would love to spend a couple days there. I wonder if the Scotsman isn't a 57 1/2? I thought all the 58 models had dual headlights? Also, I have read that both Kaiser-Ilin (Ilin Ltd.) and Continental & General in Australia continued to assemble Studebaker CKD kits well after the Hamilton, ON shut down. I wonder if somewhere in the world there's a kit of a complete car that has yet to be assembled!

While other Studebaker lines moved to four headlights, the Scotsman kept the same fenders as '57 and thus the single pair of lights. I'm not sure about how long the supply of knock-down kits lasted in export markets. Ilin in Haifa continued to produce cars into 1967. It's certainly possible that a couple kits were thrown in the back of a warehouse waiting to be found.

In Belgium, there is the (private !) collection of d'Ieteren, which was the importer of Studebakers which has some very nice ones too, including a Weasel. kzitem.info/news/bejne/wKywyq5ugnuYm6A (Sorry, it's in French: the company also imported Packard, and up to today VW, Audi and Porsche. It is even older than Studebaker, as they started in 1805 builder wheels and later tilburries etc. It is one of the two companies older than 200 years still existing in Belgium. They claim to be the oldest one in the world active in commercializing means of road transport.

Very interesting that studabaker had that long of a history and very inventive products, but was unable to survive against the big three.

General Eisenhower said that the Studebaker trucks won the war for the Russians fighting the Germans. The original Mr Studebaker started in California during the gold rush making wheel borrows in Auburn, California.

You really do very interesting videos. I noticed the steering went from the right front to the left so when did the left side drive become standard?

There really wasn't any consistency early on. It wasn't until the Model T Ford took off that the industry really standardized on LHD.

Avanti broke the 200 mph mark in 1993? I think you meant 1963. Andy Granitelli was the driver I believe.

I looked it up, Andy Granitelli came really close in '63 at 196.58 MPH. Ron Hall did it in 1993 on one of his runs only.

Too damn bad! This company supplied the US Army with many trucks during WW2. Their cars were cutting edge, as good as or better than the big three, yet the public slowly lost interest from the mid fifties. The recession of the late 1950s as well as the big threes offering budget cars by Chevrolet, Ford and Plymouth did not help matters. 😢
