  1. Last I heard, the #9 car was still in the Studebaker National Museum.... unless just recently it was sent back to California to the man who inherited John Hora's estate. But I do not know if that has happened.
  2. You may have the right and left turn hoses switched at the ports on the ram.
  3. Yes, she did the door panels. She is getting ready to do door panels for me in the pleated Elk vinyl.
  4. I've seen the tag in the past, and maybe it was something that Studebaker added in later production, but I am not sure about that. I think I might remember seeing these tags for sale from various Studebaker vendors.
  5. Here is a sample of the complete interior on a '63 R2 Avanti done by Barb at C.A.R.S. upholstery.
  6. Mark, her work is amazing and several Avantis have been shown at Amelia concours with interiors done by Barb. You will not be disappointed.
  7. Mark, Barb can get the colors. you need for your Avanti and unlike some suppliers, these are not something else that are died. It would be best to ship the seats and door panels to her, since installing the sewed material is not really something that most owners can or should do. She has installed a number of Avanti upholstery. She also has all the patterns to cut and shape the foam padding under the upholstery. There are no kits for this. She makes all the seat pads and the upholstery/
  8. Thursday night at 6 pm. Eastern, Fox Sports' FS1 channel showed a 50 minute documentary on their NASCAR Race Hub program, "Paula Murphy: Undaunted." It runs just for 60 minutes and has a number of shots and video of the #8 Avanti, along with the Lark and Hawks at Bonneville. But much of the program dealt with her racing in many other cars and tracks, Indy, drag racing, sport cars, etc. Very little actually on the Avanti Bonneville, the Transcontinental runs and Granatelli Avanti related, but Andy and Joe Granatelli are mentioned and shown often. If you subscribe to Fox Sports FS1 on your cable TV, or the channel's internet streaming service (online or through Apple TV) you can view it there. It also is viewable on the Fox Sports website through this link below for a 60 minute free preview, unless you already subscribe to the channel's website, or subscribe to see the video without the "free preview" title superimposed at the top. https://www.fox.com/watch/f2696d5b95a976db8a5c7b239e89e116/
