    Very interesting story about Jon and Carlene. It got e to wondering how many states I have driven a Studebaker in. I got he Atlas out and as best I can remember, I have driven either a Stock Studebaker or an Avantti II in 12 states. Maybe I'll add this to my Bucket List.

      I'm waiting on Carl Purdy to weigh in - he's driven to a bunch of states in his Studebakers.
      BTW, good job, Jon!

        To me, articles like this one, about a Studebaker that is actually being driven, highlight one important reason why the Studebaker DRIVERS club was founded!

          Thanks Chris. My wife has been counting. She came up with 21 states. Of course this has been since 1985. One time we was at Mammoth Cave in Ky. a guy in the parking lot came over and said he didn't know me but he knew the car. He saw it in Knoxville, Tn. last year. And it is also a 51.

            We have seen Carl & his navigator in many states... Always with a Studebaker and always with big smiles on their faces. True Studebaker "Drivers"!

                    This is a great article. As what was said above this is the kind of publicity we really need, as we are the Studebaker Drivers Club.
