mfg Posted August 12, 2025 Report Posted August 12, 2025 Expenses incurred by Studebaker pertaining to their Avanti display at the 1962 New York International Auto show came to approx …..?….. 1) $9,000…..2) $12,000…..3) $15,000….. or……4) $19,000
Mark63Avanti Posted August 12, 2025 Report Posted August 12, 2025 I'm going to say $19K. New York is an expensive town and I know Studebaker didn't have any money but this is NOT the area to trim the budget. Fingers crossed.

Stacey Posted August 13, 2025 Report Posted August 13, 2025 In 1962 money I would guess #2 $12, grand.

Mark63Avanti Posted August 13, 2025 Report Posted August 13, 2025 I think we found our reason why the Avanti didn't save Studebaker: they didn't spend enough on the car show!
