Nice looking car. I’ve never seen a 1966 Studebaker. Do you still have the car or did you sell it? If you still have the car, do you have any other pics of the car you could show?

I’ve also seen Chris Craft boats with 318 Chrysler outboard motors. My Dad’s 1966 Studebaker Commander had the ‘skybolt six’, which was a 250 CID Chevy straight 6. My two cents for the day. Take care, Bill
