Venturing farther off topic, but what qualified a Vega as a GT? When I was in college in the '70's a couple of my track team mates had them. However, I far preferred the '73 Dodge Dart my buddy had with the "Falcon doors" on either side that stored the beer and kept it cold on those long road trips.

A PowerShift/AC Cruiser is going to be REAL hard to find. You might find one or the other of the two options, but both on the same car would be super rare.

IMHO, Studebaker (and all other car makers of the 60's) NEVER fixed "the rust issue". They got a little better at avoiding the tin worm, but I have seen plenty 64-66 Studebakers completely rusted out.

I think a '64 Cruiser is a great choice. I'd find the most rust free example you can in your price range and accept the equipment that it comes with.

Thanks Dick, I'll go for the Powershift, thought maybe A/C would have been common, in any case, I can look forward to actually getting one instead of just looking at those of others.
