Believe the first 10 prototypes and 1st 5 or 10 production car frames assembled by Midland Ross Cleveland Ohio under contract with Studebaker Know the prototypes all were Midland Ross and carried green frame plate
-
When I have some spare time I will check the actual production records. Using a TW ad as a source is a new one on me and is dangerous to even reference because as Abe Lincoln said If its on the Internet it must be true Regards

Sorry guys I don't have time now to find them but telegrams from Loewy to his partner Snaith and loewy letter to Clarence Francis actual documents not loewy rememberers trump your understandings Trying to keep things factual again from actual records and documents not remembrance's A reporter was sent to a gunfight between a legend and an up and comer Reported back to the editor and asked Do you want the truth or the legend The editor told him to go with the legend

Sorry guys Loewy contacted Egbert thru an inquiry to Clarance Francis Chairman of the Board Studebaker First One of the biggest Avanti myths ever Egbert contacted Loewy first makes good press but not true Have letters and telegrams supporting this from Loewys files Please be careful with these types of questions etc. as very few people and I'm one knows what really happened and this exercise promotes an untruth Regards

If your going to use my research how about crediting your source
ie: my prototype information schedule
-
I did not credit you because I had no idea this was yours.
There was nothing on it that referenced you.
This same schedule is on Bob Johnstone's web site and there is also no mention of you.
