    Dick,

    I've never seen a PO like this one. What's strange about it is the huge block letters and numbers across the face of it. Seems as tho those letters rendered parts of the form useless!
    Since this one notes that these cars were built on Sample street, did the other plants use forms with the main drag's nomer so boldly featured across the form???[B)]
    As any reputable purveyor of urban legend can confirm, this company went down the tubes because they was always ahead of their time! But when you see little things like this, you have to wonder if it weren't other things that contributed to their demise![8]

    Miscreant adrift in
    the BerStuda Triangle


    1957 Transtar 1/2ton
    1960 Larkvertible V8
    1958 Provincial wagon
    1953 Commander coupe

    No deceptive flags to prove I'm patriotic - no biblical BS to impress - just ME and Studebakers - as it should be.

                            ...like stating (in big bold letters) that 1,953 equals 55??
