  • Mr. Dresbach driving his Champion to Stude-Intl.

    I filmed these videos 5-7-2010 while riding with Chris and his mother to the new Studebaker International facilities at the Studebaker Business Center (former Studebaker Aviation plant). Thanks for the ride Chris!


    Here is the friendly staff that served us during the grand opening.

    The guy next to Ed (second from Left) looks like he's ready to take on those CASO's looking for a NOS '54 Grille Moulding for $50.00!

      The man next to Ed was one of the tour guides. He readily explained the space, the history of the Aviation Plant, the blueprint rooms, and how the new place came to be. I dunno about taking on people looking for '54 grille moldings, but he took on questions from the crowd when I walked through there .

          That is none other than the illustrious Captain Hook and tour guide extroardinaire, Tom Molnar. I think he found his true calling- he was that good![8D]
