After contacting Bob Torvick I can confirm that He purchased Auto Mart in 1963 and was then a Studebaker dealer. He didn't have any frames on hand though !Originally posted by rbigcal View PostI did run across that, but then later couldn't find it and I guess I sort of forgot it. Wonder why it just said Lark. Now if I could find a pair of those

Lanham auto sales
Bige do you have any of those copies of the studebaker news issues? Or maybe one that has the Lanham Auto Sales in Massillon Ohio mentioned in them? That was my grandfathers dealership and I'm trying to dig up anything that has the name mentioned in there for my father.

My name is Ken Aggen. I bought a new 1960 Lark VIII Hardtop from Mount Greenwood Motors on Chicago's SW side when I was 20. Location was on south Kedzie Ave. This was after Al Payne motors located on 111th street closed and sold the Studebaker dealership to George Shumsky and his brother Mike.
My father was a Studebaker Truck Salesman for Al Payne motors. For lack of space at Al Payne Motors his new Truck and Car inventory was stored Our Aggen Farm at 3837 West111th St in the early 50s. What great fun it was at age 10 to 15 to watch new cars being unloaded down the ramps off ARCO auto carrier transports in our farm yard.
I will never forget my first test drive in a new Avanti at Mount Greenwood. What a Trip that was going south on Kedzie just past the city limits where you could really get on it.
I drove the wheels of my Lark in the 8 years I had it. Gave it to a friend when the wife and I and 3 little boys moved to Texas in 68. Wish I had one like it now to give it to my wife for our 54th wedding anniversary. Honeymooned to Florida in that sweet Oasis Green Lark in April of 62.
One nice thing about Mount Greenwood Motors is they were a RACE PERFORMANCE Dealership that built and maintained Studebaker 1/4 mile stock cars for driver Bill Van Allen. My clutch went to slippin and George built me a pressure plate using Model A Ford valve springs. My little wife had a tough time pushing in the clutch after that but it never ever slipped again.
I and someone else posted some pictures of the Al Payne Motors Inventory at the Aggen Farm in 1950. Also some Pictures of Studes our Family owned.
