True or false......      a roll bar was incorporated into the initial design of the Studebaker Avanti at the insistence of Sherwood Egbert.

False, One of the designs was going to be a front removable "Targa" section. The roll bar was the rear anchor point for that.

Correct!...the roll bar can be attributed to Raymond Loewy and the initial concepts for the car.
