I was looking into some Canadian rally history, and Studebaker seems to have done quite well.
In the 1961 Shell Canada 4000, Larks placed 1st, 2nd, 33rd and 66th, with a Hawk in 23rd (out of 106 entries).
In 1962, Larks finished 1st (Studebaker Canada team), 8th, 19th, with two Studebaker team entries DNF.
In 1963, Larks came in 22nd, 27th thru 30th, 40th, and 1 DNF (no Studebaker backing that year)
1964 had only one Studebaker, placed 43rd.
1965 had a lone Commander, placed 28th.
1966 had a single Daytona with a DNS - Familiar name... Stu Chapman!
1967 had a lone GT Hawk retire.
1968 saw no Stude entries, and a noticable shift - Mostly Toyota and Datsun entries.
There are lots of good pictures on the site too.
