  • Almost(?) Studebaker content...

    Names & such, wasn't McCulloch owned by Studebaker?
    & wasn't Granatelli involved in Studebaker too?
    (I've always had a feeling that Studebaker & MoPar had quite a lot in common...)

    Assuming that ad is from 1960, it would have been a year or two too early for Studebaker's involvement with Paxton. Sherwood Egbert wasn't hired until early 1961, and I believe it was in 1962 he bought Paxton.

        One of Granatelli's Dodge cars is in Don Garlit's museum down in Ocala, FL....

                & oh Jeff, your comment made me google & as I always've been soft for -62 Dodge & Plymouth I sure got my brain all warmed up, there seems to be both at Don Garlits museum.
                If I still had my -62 Fury I know what color it would've been!
                Oh the memories & a few regrets...

                    My Studebaker also has lefthand threads but only in front since it's original there...

                    & so did the Jaguar MK2 I once owned, has to do with racing experiance.
                    Some Cadillacs I've had for sure would have benefited from it, now-&-then I had to re-tighten one side's wheel lugs.
