If You Had Ten Questions to ask Andy.......

[DEEPNHOCK]

The opening day question has already been asked...and not answered.
That is something that Andy does not have a lot of control over as of right now.

I'll ask the question, but don't know if there will be a remembered answer..That was a long time ago.

Was the "Due Cento" just an experimental Avanti and engine to get you into the "200" club? Was it ever going to be put into production? Did Bendix try to adapt its multi-port electronic fuel injection system "Electrojector" on a 304 engine? Would that have been the R5, a 304 with fuel injection and supercharged? What if Studebaker had purchased Bendix or just the I.F. system like Bosch did. They could have perfected the electronics and had "Jetronic" fuel injection on their "Jet Thrust" engine the Rocket 5 (R5).

Wow, that is interesting! A real all American Co. that stayed small for a LOT of years, unheard-of except in the few States they are located in, BUT...are the #2 highest profit fast food chain in the Country! [:0]

The little Co. that COULD, that nobody heard of!!

All except for the high profits, that reminds me of Studebaker! [^]

My question is--Did the special built 63 R2 Champ pickup get used at the salt flats in 63-64 as was the purpose it was built.

Serious Question- When The Studebaker Corperation museum loaned you the 1932 Indy race car for promotion purposes, did you think that was permanant? And don't you think it belongs back in South Bend?

Jeff,

Andy answered #3 thru 10 (& a lot more) here in South Bend when he was inducted into the "Studebaker Hall of Fame" back in 2002. After the dinner & presentation part, he pulled up a chair and "talked everything Studebaker" for an hour or more. For those of us who stuck around after the ceremony, he talked & answered questions for possibly another hour. The true "Studebaker Gentleman" he is, he handed me his personal contact info card and said to call him if I wanted to know more. I still have that card, but never wanted to bother him.

IIRC, our Sir Richard Quinn had that ceremony video taped. His own tape recorder and camera worked overtime during the "gab session" that followed. How 'bout it Richard, does that video tape and your personal recordings still exist and would you "care-to-share" with us all[?]

Does Andy see any future applications for a turbine engine?
