This Day in Automotive History 7/27/1956: Studebaker-Packard enters joint manage- ment agreement with Curtiss-Wright. 5 1954 Studebaker Commander Regal Starlight Coupe Project By Pete Rutledge, Woodbridge, VA I got this car from Massachusetts via eBay in 2007. My mistake. It was advertised as a “former local show car.” They got me. I bought it. When the car was delivered, it looked pretty good from 20 feet away, but up closer, I could see that it had a very poorly done paint job and “cheap” interior. As time went on and I got “deeper” into the car, I found a lot of rust in the trunk, in the floors, under the fenders, and even in parts of the frame. For the next seven years I worked on repairing most of the rust and replacing the fiberglass front fend- ers with real steel.

  • The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 48 Issue 6 June 2016 Hershey Day Trip
    Potomac Chapter The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 48 Issue 6 June 2016 Hershey Day Trip May 14th, a beautiful spring morning, found Ruth and Darrell Carr, Nadine and Mike Farris, Ron and Don Hoff, Bob and Donna Johnstone, Karen and Paul Johnson, Shirley and Terry McDaniel, and Pat and Larry Merhaut gathered at the Burger King at Thurmont, Maryland. The caravan lined up and pulled out exactly at 9:15 as sched- uled heading north on US 15, a friendly and scenic drive. After crossing in to Pennsylvania, at York Springs the car- avan headed off toward Carlisle following Route 94. Those who had not been on that route were very im- pressed by the beauty of the Adams County orchard lands, all in all a very scenic route. At Carlisle the caravan joined Interstate 81 and headed east. Af- ter a few wild lane changes enroute in the Harrisburg vicinity caravaners exited 81 north of Hershey and headed down Route 39 toward Hershey. With a number of traffic lights and heavy traffic be- tween 81 and Hershey some intrepid travelers got widely separated, but not to worry. Ruth Carr’s excellent directions got all to the first stop, Hershey Gardens with no problems. Hershey Gardens is beautifully located on a hill top overlooking the town and Hershey Park. All enjoyed the beauty of the Gardens with wide, very accessible paths and very unusual plants, imagi- native sculptures and more. All in all Hershey Gardens is a very worthwhile destination in itself. Keeping right on the carefully timed schedule, the caravan left for lunch at a Panera Bread restaurant nearby.

ALTERNATE FORMATS: RELATED HOLDINGS: ACCESSION 1993.0715, 1995.0138 NUMBER: NOTES: HISTORICAL SKETCH The Studebaker Corporation, based in South Bend, Indiana, began making automobiles in 1902. During the 1920s and 30s Studebaker produced high-end cars such as the President and the Champion that marked engineering firsts in the automobile world. During World War II, Studebaker produced a line of military vehicles for the United States Army. The management of Studebaker repeatedly had trouble with labor costs and quality control issues. In an attempt to stabilize their financial situation, Studebaker merged with Packard Motor Car Company of Detroit during the 1950s. Though the merger helped to diversify the selection of vehicles, including the creation of the very successful Lark and Avanti, it did not create the financial stability that the owners hoped. The competition from the “Big 3” automobile manufacturers proved too much competition for a small company like Studebaker.
