Certainly - This is Knight Auto Sales in Bangor, Maine on Cumberland St. In October 1962 my Dad and I went out on a Saturday morning to see all the new 1963's - I was 10 years old. My Dad was friends with a salesman at Knight and we ended up taking out a brand new white Avanti for a spin - Dad driving, salesman in the passengers seat and me in the back. Dad took it out on Interstate 95 and pushed it to over 100 MPH. I can still feel the excitement of that ride - 1st time I had ever been over 100 MPH ! Knight sold Studebaker and Mercedes in Bangor and they were selling Studebaker's right up until they couldn't get any more.
