mfg Posted July 4, 2014 Report Posted July 4, 2014 Trivia...The Studebaker Avantis spare tire location was decided on and approved by Raymond Loewy....True?
brad Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 False the "spare" tire well was originally considered to be lined and used as the gas tank.
mfg Posted July 5, 2014 Author Report Posted July 5, 2014 Correct! (R.L. wanted an 'exposed' spare...to be seen through the back window, on some type of fancy wheel. Deemed to expensive for production)
