mfg Posted August 20, 2017 Report Posted August 20, 2017 Mr. Sherwood Egbert came up with the 'overhead switch' idea that was quite unique for the 1963 Studebaker Avantis.........True?
Peddler Posted August 20, 2017 Report Posted August 20, 2017 Yes, he was a pilot and took the idea from airplanes of the day.

Geoff Posted August 21, 2017 Report Posted August 21, 2017 I vote false. Egbert being a private pilot was the inspiration for the switches (and the red backlit gauges) but he wasn't the one who implemented those design cues.
