I stumbled on this these video's today of Studebaker's on Parade at the 2012 International Meet in South Bend. Didn't see my Car (I was at the back of the pack arriving a few minutes after the video finished)

Allen , that sure was fun , I remember how hot it was, almost killed me ! Wish we could get a little of that heat right now !

At exactly 1:59 into the part one vid, there's an 8E12 that's a dead ringer for the one I came to California in. Even still has the massive angle iron rear bumper that it wore. I know the current owner looks in here on the forum, I sure wish he'd take a look and see if it matches to a T (as in T-cab). I believe I had added the door and corner trim mouldings like this one wears. I can't see the dash in this clip. If I could - and it had the cyclops eye speedo in place, there'd be no doubt!

Allen thanks for posting this ! in video 3 you can see Cyndi and I pass by in our black 64 R2 Commander and behind it is my friend Jay in behind the wheel of our 63 white R3 powered Avanti . We are members of the Michiana chapter and worked as a team to pull this off so to continue these type of meets volunteers are needed . I want encourage any Stude owner to help the local chapter in any way they can ! Ed

A Great 3 Part Video Set! There was a Black and White '55 Speedster driving by in Video #1 with the SB Paint scheme; the complete upper part above the Butterknife painted White, with Wire Wheels, White Fog Lights Mounted outboard, Wide White Walls and lowered, and someone Said: "there's Ed!". Is that our SN-60?

We are the last Lark before the Rolling Stoneabaker in the 3rd video.

That car belongs to Ervin and Robyn Souder from Enderby, British Columbia. The car has a late model fuel injected LS1 motor in it. It's very nicely done. I think the Ed they were calling out was forum member Ed Ellis who has the very loud black 53 Starliner. It has a twin supercharged 289 in it.

The videos were made by our forum creator, Bob Shaw. Nice work Bob!

Pat, you are right it was my black 53 Starliner and you're right it was too loud! When I got home I put a second pair of flow masters on it in an effort to quiet it down and keep the neighbors off my back. Hopefully I will have it at Dover in July. See ya then?

[Pat Dilling]

Glad to hear you have made it stealthier Ed. I doubt I will be making the cross country trek this year. Might make it to St Louis in 2015. Route 66 is on my bucket list.

Hey Ed,

I was watching to see who I knew on these videos. Your Commander is unmistakable with those Halibrands on the car. Cyndi was looking pretty casual hanging out on that hot day. I have to re-look at it again to catch Jay in your Avanti.


Best Regards

Driving and walking!

Thanks for sharing the videos. We were there for a few hours on Thursday and saw the cars at the fairground. Missed the parade and regret it.
