because when i open the door i now see two studebakers! we just purchased this 64 daytona to add to our car collection.

[Gary1953]

Congrats. That is a very nice looking Daytona.

[SN-60]

WOW!!!!! What a clean, original looking Studebaker Daytona!

[Effie]

nice addition.

That is a clean sharp Daytona,I really like it.how does it compare with the white Lark condition wise ?

[rodnutrandy]

I envy you. I would love to find a 64 2dr. hardtop in the condition you found. Couldn't afford it after I found it, but just to find it would be a experience!

[Flashback]

I really like the cars, and the intresting play house. Very good photo of opening the garage. Looks like you are having fun.

the white car is a 61 cruiser - bought it off craigslist june 2009 - completely worn out mechanically, but a super solid california car. now has 62 hawk 289, and just about everything else rebuilt or replaced. handles 500 mile trips with ease. went north of wis. dells to get it. bought the daytona july 2012. has new seat upholstery (correct), headliner and carpets. paint is so-so but we will cut & buff and see what happens. 60,000 mile car. 259/auto with p/s. bought it off craigslist, went to green bay wis. to get it. neither deal could have happened without my cousin Jim Moore. he hauled both these cars many miles, and he found the 64 on craigslist. many thanks Jimmy.

Butch as you know both are welcome in my driveway! The 61 has gone thru an upgrade that most would not have done. As for the 64 it has also found a good home and happy for you and Laura. Ed

Nice car, Butch! Will this one make an apperance at the International?

[Milaca]

I am usually not a fan of Chrysler/Dodge automobiles, but that's a great looking Daytona!

Butch,

Looks nice, my favorite color combo for '64 too! Looking forward to seeing it in person.

[JRoberts]

What a pair! I'm sure the '61 appreciates the company of a new family member in such fine shape setting in its playhouse.

[studerodder]

Nice car, Butch! Will this one make an apperance at the International?

if all goes well, then yes this will be my SB ride. needs work, but parts are coming and i fix cars all day - every day so we hope it works out.

[Sam Ensley]

Both cars are nice, but I'm partial to the 64's. Looking forward to seeing that Daytona at South Bend.
