'Just got the January 2013 Hemmings Classic Car in this morning's mail. It is the 100th issue of the magazine, so they highlighted what they feel are The Top 100 American Collector Cars of All Time.
Studebaker scored three times on their list: The 1937 Dictator Coupe, 1953 Starliner and 1963 Avanti. Woo-hoo! While we might think our marque worthy of other citations, I think that is doggone good: After all, 3% is a far greater percentage than Studebaker's overall passenger car market penetration during the entitety of domestic automobile production.
Also in this issue is a nice plug for Andy Beckman's new book; Studebaker's Last Dance: The Avanti.
Finally, there is a terrific article on a virtually all-original (seriously) 1923 Studebaker Light Six. The car is loaded with patina and a delight to read about. BP
