  • A Great Time Last Night

    My wife & I met up with an old high school buddy, Brian Kovac, last night. Brian's dad owned the local Studebaker dealership in town back in the day and brought me some of the artifacts from there. The "goodie bag" included a pair of dealer stickers, a Lark yardstick, a key fob & trash bag with dealer name, office stationary, paper floor mats, playing cards & a "lubrication kit." The last time I had seen him was at school in march, 1964, fifty years ago! The only thing that didn't go according to plan was driving my 62 Champ there. It sits patently in the driveway now waiting for my attention for what appears to be a fuel delivery problem. But the conversation & association was priceless indeed! Thanks again Brian.

    I love when things like that come together Warren, I am happy for you.
    I know how much that would mean to me to get reacquainted with a friend lost for that long, priceless!
    AND, a STUDEBAKER guy, what could be better!

        Kovac Motors, Woodbridge, N.J. Bill Kovac took on Studebaker in the summer of 55 I believe. Before that he carried Kaiser & Willys.
