  1. I don't think anybody reproduces them since there is such a small demand. I had a local sign shop make new ones for my 2007. Might be your only option.
  2. Congratulations to Ed George on being honored with the 2024 Spirit of Studebaker award at last night’s Studebaker National Museum’s Hall of Champions dinner. The Spirit of Studebaker Award is given annually to an individual who has given their time and talent in service of the Studebaker National Museum and who has played a key role in maintaining the Studebaker Legacy. Ed certainly fits that description. Again, Congratulations to Ed on a well-deserved award.
  3. Are the wiring diagrams for the 84 available?
  4. Paul, the tires are 215/70R15. Dolly Blue handles great with those on it. Bill
  5. I have the Real Rodder wheels on my 64 Daytona and my friend had them on his 64 R2. They are good quality. The spinners are from Endurance Products an are sold through Real Rodder. Can't go wrong with his wheels. Bill
  6. Bob Palma told me a story about the time he and his brother snuck into the proving grounds and hid in a tree on the side of the track and watched an Avanti running laps. On one of those laps the car stopped, backed up and than stopped at the side of the track. The driver got out and walked up to the tree and told the boys to come down. Though they thought they were camouflaged by the tree their legs were dangling below the branches. After questioning them about what they were doing there he put them in the back seat of the Avanti and drove them to the front gate and told them to leave and never come back. They may have been the 1st two people to ride in the back seat of an Avanti.
  7. Since Herb Adams had a lot on influence on the GT there was lot of GM styling and parts that went into the car. The suspension is a nightmare with GM parts but all customized. There is nothing of the shelf with the GT
  8. Geoff, the correct front bumper for the GT was made out of fiberglass and was different from all other bumpers. Hope that helps with your build. I would love to see pictures. Bill
  9. Looking for replacement foam and parts for the Recaro seats in my 84. Need new foam (I can feel the frame when I set) and the seat will not lock in place. Any good resources? Thanks
