A coil spring rear end would have certainly modernized the Stude line and made them contemporaries with the big dogs.

Stu standing by it in the museum with a background of Hamilton factory (Vale). Then again it may just be the young Stu at Hamilton in 1966. A good way to go out, lovely vehicle.

I wondered about that - "looks like it's outside the Hamilton Plant. No, couldn't be it's in the museum." Glad some enjoyment was gained by driving the car until it was placed in the museum, lucky really as it could have been totalled in a crash and we wouldn't have it.
Have you ever had a chance to see whether you have duplicate ads of the last few years? I have some but more were produced than are offered by eBay and the like.John Clements

I did once Stu - he said he had to sort things out, so maybe by the time Studebaker open their new factory I may hear from him (LOL). I got the 1965 one with the pram at the bottom recently and marvelled at the change in the world since then "this will make a lot of sense to your husband when you ask him to get you one" now she'd just buy it and surprise him.John Clements
