Steve Magnante sighting

[Mark63Avanti]

The Ocean Bay Chapter of the Studebaker Driver's Club met last Sunday and when there's a flock of Studebaker's it draws a crowd. This fellow was asking about my car and when I turned to answer him I knew it was (but couldn't remember his name) Steve Magnante. Along with working for Barrett-Jackson, Steve had his own series called Junkyard Crawls. He's had an episode on Studebaker plus other mentions. It was great to meet him but he looked pretty gaunt. He mentioned that he was recovering from encephalitis and was feeling better. When I got home I did a quick search and found that he has a GoFundMe page. It was a treat to meet someone who thought enough of Studebaker to include them in his shows.

I saw the episode and it was quite interesting...No mention of Avanti's which was a little disappointing. We are the end game of the Studie Corp yet we carried it on.

Yeah, no mention of the Avanti but then again, there aren't too many Avanti's sitting around in junkyards to look over....

I always thought Steve’s show was interesting and entertaining… He does a good job at the auctions also!

Watching His show is always interesting and informative,

He's a real Chrysler Fanatic, which I am not.
