If you find yourself in South Bend again, the museum is a really good one and a bargain for us seniors for $6.50!Mike Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053039844141113175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-55558805926069235272017-07-16T23:05:54.897-05:002017-07-16T23:05:54.897-05:00My dad had a 1950 Studebaker.

When I was a senior in high school in Baton Rouge a guy from a town 10 miles to the east had a 1957 Golden Hawk that he would bring into town on the weekends. If you got into a little drag race with him you were surly going to lose as that thing was FAST. Have been to that area many times but never knew they had a Studebake Museum.Michael Volentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03466277664540850411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-57011898520887608692017-07-16T00:28:51.098-05:002017-07-16T00:28:51.098-05:00I'll bet you could have one, Bill, if you want...I'll bet you could have one, Bill, if you wanted it.

It was the only one in town, so he became a celebrity of sorts.
