  • Fall '63 photo of black '64 Cruiser in front of Admin. Building with officers and sailors

    Hi.

    I was thinking I had seen a photo some time, of a black '64 Cruiser with dual headrests, in front of the Administration Building, with a smiling Lew Minkel, VP of Sales, and a Navy officer and a couple sailors, who were getting the Cruiser on loan during their South Bend visit, while Navy played Notre Dame. Richard Quinn said it's not in the Studebaker News magazine. Is this pic ringing a bell with anyone? I know I have seen it...not the slightest doubt. Only other place I can think of is to look through the TW issues that featured the '64's, although not sure how to figure that out.

    I'm interested, because I have a couple good reasons to suspect that I recently looked at that very car.

    Thanks!

      Thanks to Bob Dudeck, I know that it's a pic on page 101 of Ed Reynolds' Lark photo book!
