The question is: Are the big Studebaker Wheel and script still intact and visible as in these photos? The photos look recent, so I hope the wheel and script are still there. Very cool. BPWe've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

Looks like the old Pabich Motors (Studebaker Dealer) building in Roselle, Illinois is going to be demolished for a modern new development[V].
I rode home in my fathers Hawk from that dealership in 1961.

As you know, Uncle George Krem's Colonial Red 1960 Lark 2-door with Power Kit 259 and straight three-speed was ordered and delivered through Pabich. I spent a lot of time there, too, when visiting Cousin George for Studebaker adventuring in 1960-1963.
When Cousin George ordered the R3 engine from Paxton Products, the engine now in The Plain Brown Wrapper, it was ordered through Pabich's parts dept. I'll bet it's the only R3 anything that little dealership ever ordered, and it was a whole engine! BPWe've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

I think Randolph Light was a Minneapolis dealer. I once saw a '53 Coupe with a dealer tag on the deck lid with that name on it. This was at the Back to the 50s show in St Paul. Lake Street in Minneapolis is a major street.

There was a Cordell Motors in nearby Moorhead that has been posted on this thread before.
My '63 R1 Skytop was purchased through Cordell Motors. I've said it before, but if anyone could provide anything from there, like a keychain, ice scraper, etc. etc. etc., and a picture of the buiding, either then or now, I'd appreciate (and pay for) it.
