      You will have to find somebody in South Bend to fill in the blanks. I am suffering from CRS.

        Well it could be "largest" or maybe "last"

          The world's largest chocolate factory, or something like that. Sign by "South Bend Chocolate Factory"

            Here's a picture I took last year during the International Meet.
            I've seen some of their chocolate for sale a Jewel/Osco store last year. I think it was the Studebaker wheel shaped ones.

                You must have a better camera to get it all in.

                  I think I took it from across the street. It's just a out of date Kodak digital.

                    The vents in that building give the 51 Stude a look like extra trim pieces. A la Buick Yjob. I like it.

                      People in South Bend remember their heritage. The use of the iconic Bullet-nose is perfect!

                        The owner of the business is Mark Tarner and for the International here years back he was going to hang my twelve foot tall neon Studebaker dealer sign on Michigan Street. He also supposedly wanted to hang a Studebaker over one of the bridges coming into town but that was quickly nixxed by government.

                          I was born in Indianapolis but never got to South Bend. I hope to go there one day. Several reasons, including visiting the Studebaker Museum. I will add a visit to Mark Tarner's place to see the sign and meet Mark. He sounds like a real character. Just my kinda guy.

                            Just look at the sign and use your imagination.
