    Make that: "Astra White, 1964 Daytona Collector Bob"!

    I don't think a Cruiser would fit his "Daytona Collection"!
    Bob also prefers Original Paint.

    That sounds like one heck of an Excellent example of a well maintained Luxury Cruiser Sedan though! I love that Cruiser only, All Vinyl, Blue, Split Bench Reclining Seat and Interior.

    What I don't think this seller knows is, his: "unusual on this Model Power Brakes" are actually DISC Brakes!

      You're killing me, Milt!

      However, if I were to buy another car right now, it would be the Riviera Blue 1961 Hawk The Studebaker National Museum has on e-bay. I saw the car in person when dropping off my '73 Mustang convertible for their Disco Decade Rides special display this winter. That Hawk is a nice car; bone dry. The driest unrepaired C-body I've seen in decades. BP

        That does look nice. What keeps me away is that I have owned four 1964 Cruisers, including one in white with blue vinyl seats that I drove for quite awhile. At first I thought that it might be the same car, but I do not remember mine as having pdb.

          Three reasons I would not be interested in the car is location, blue intake, and 65 blue interior. looks to be a nice car and my real and only reason is I am not in the market for any more Studebaker's .

            Looks like a great driver. I'd buy it but have a '64 4 door in the form of a wagon! Only thing I'm curious about is the trim on the left rear door. Looks like it has a '63 door on it as the trim and door handle are misaligned. My Cruiser also had a pair of those headrests which are a nice addition. I'd like to have it in my garage but already full with 6 '64's.

              Bob, the Interior is what you got when you bought a '64 CRUISER, with the All Vinyl Seats, not like Cloth most had, or the Daytona.

              Yes, it's the same as a '65 & '66 Cruiser.

              Nothing wrong here either:

                '64 and '65 Cruiser vinyl seating is the same design; '66 is different.

                The LR interior door panel is for a '64; looks correct to my eyes.

                  Perhaps I am seeing something in the picture of the EXTERIOR of the LR door and the misalignment of the trim. On '63's the EXTERIOR door handle was set lower in the door from the top. It appears to me that the EXTERIOR trim does not line up correctly in that it does not meet flush with the line of the rear fender trim. '63 rear doors are a year unto themselves. I'd still like to have it though.
