Friend Phil Brandt and I fielded the only two Studebakers in the Lizton Community Association Benefit Car Show today in -where else- Lizton IN. (It's said to be the only Lizton in the world, BTW.)
You may recall that Phil was instrumental in helping our mutual friend Rock acquire that one-of-one R2, Horizon Green 1964 Gran Turismo Hawk last week.
Many of you have seen Phil's tangerine-scalloped over pearl white 1956 Golden Hawk. It's one of the few survivors with factory stick overdrive. Well, the judges thought it was pretty cool, too, since it garnered TWO trophies: Sponsor's Choice and one of the "Top 20." (OK, maybe being one of the Top 20 among 48 cars isn't a great big deal, but he did get the trophy....and, by contrast, yours truly's Daytona convertible got ZIP!)
Congrats, Phil; cool beans. BP
