Studebaker firsts

You can download Mr. Quinn"s excellent article HERE

There also is another good reference piece, "Studebaker Myths & Misconceptions" you can download HERE

Both of these are good to have on hand (or copy and handout) at car shows. I made a display stand for them and folks do stop and read them. I also believe people view them as more "authoritative" than just me telling them things.

You have to look no further than the "Almanac" in your January 1996 Turning Wheels, pages 42-44.

This is an interesting article about 1st's too. Not Studebaker
, but seems to disagree with a couple of items. http://www.autonews.com/article/1996...idn't-sell.

Would this help? It was sent out with some of the International Drive Your Studebaker Day promotional material a couple of years ago

1961, Safety padded dash? 55 door safety latch? Nice to say you are the first, but if they were ineffective, what is the sense. Only in a Stude have I ever had a door swing open, and one is more likely to hit the windshield before the dash in a 61 Lark.

Several Posts came up in a Search about this but the "Lists" are gone, there were some Photobucket Pics I don't know of what because they are gone.

Can anybody connect me with the chart listing Studebaker firsts that was published on the forum a while ago? I don't remember how long ago, may have been a year or more! Thanks- Jim
