murph the surf Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 In search of a model to replace the aging line of Studebaker passenger cars (other than the Avanti) beginning in the 1964 model year, Studebaker considered several options, one option being an Avanti-influenced, Avanti-based full model lineup. The man sent to France, to oversee the construction of the fully functional metal bodied prototype for the Avanti-based lineup was: 1) Otto Klausmeyer 2) Otis Romine 3) John Ebstein 4) Brooks Stevens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
