I have read the forum almost daily for over three years. It has assisted me in learning more about Studebakers; although, never enough! Some forum participants and other SDC members have helped me with questions in the past. Now there is one more Bob in the forum!
Being aware of the interest in dealer history my Avanti was sold by Maffe Bros., Inc. in Bellaire, Ohio and I purchased it from the deceased owner's family. Milt Green was shown in the local newspaper receiving the keys for the car from John Maffe with the car in the foreground. It is my understanding the photo and article were included in the May, 1963 issue of Studebaker News. It appears delivery was on January 31, 1963. I obtained a copy of the build sheet and the article courtesy of Andy Beckman, Archivist at the Studebaker National Museum.
