Thanks for watching the video Meet this 1964 Studebaker Supercharged Daytona - Super Lark Tribute! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
That is my grandpa I got to work on it with him 😊
Awesome Eva! So great to have you watch and leave your comments! We so love family/car stories and it was so much fun to meet and hang out with your grandpa!
I have worked on that car with walt it's his fault I'm in the studebaker club he is a great guy
After Sherwood Egbert took early retirement due to cancer, studebaker execs decided they couldn’t bring the automobile part of the company back to profitability, so they simply stopped making cars. They had dealer commitments to fulfil so they left the Canadian plant open until 66. Studebaker continued on as a company. They merged a few times and finally shut down completely in 1979 as studebaker worthington corporation. They owned stp, McCullough/Paxton superchargers, gravely tractors, and many other companies along the journey after discontinuing automotive production. Had Sherwood not gotten cancer and retired, studebaker could’ve been a huge part of the muscle car wars of the 60’s. Instead they merely started it with the super lark, super hawk gt, and avanti.. I own a 58 silver hawk. My father and grandfather had many studebakers from the 20’s on up through the 50’s. My car is a 289, 4bbl, with the t85 3 speed, overdrive and 3.31 twin traction rear axle.
Thanks for watching and for the great comment and sharing your memories! Keep watching!
Outstanding Studebaker ❤ The last time I saw one this nice was in the early 70's. Fantastic work Walt.
Right on! Thanks for watching and for the very nice comment!
I had a 62 Lark given to me and a friend when I was 14 from his aunt. It had 44,000 miles with a thrown rod. We got it going and tore up the back ally with that little 170 until it totally quit and I turned 16. I tore that engine out 5 times as the crank was actually shot and ate up bearings. That’s what started a lifetime of hotrodding for me which I still enjoy at age 68. I still have a couple that I drive and play on.
My dad had a 1961 Daytona hardtop. Four on the floor. Would hold its own with 348 chevy's. Great little car. Wished we had kept it.
Very cool! The one that got away, huh. We appreciate you watching and commenting!
Great job Walt on this amazing Studebaker! A lot of thought went into this and the finished product is fabulous. Thanks for a really enjoyable video guys!
Thanks again! We had so much fun hanging with Walt and sharing his story. He is a great car guy but especially those Studes!!
Beautiful car guys beautiful car
Love the sleeper.😊😊
Us too! Thanks for watching!
Studebaker didn't "move" their operations to Canada for the last two years. All Studebakers sold outside the USA, in the Export Market came from their Canadian Operations. They opened their facilities in Canada in 1947. In 1963, Studebaker merely closed the South Bend Indiana plant down and Mishawkowa both in Indiana. All their other plants in Canada and around the world remained open. The last Studebaker rolled out of the Haifa plant in Israel in 1967
Such a fabulous car!
Agreed! Glad you like it and hope you find more cool features to love!
Walt's Studie looks fantastic. Would give some of those rice burners a shock at the traffic light Grand Prix. 🙂
Great idea! Thanks for watching and leaving a fun comment!
Whenever I see a Studebaker it reminds me of Mr Ed........ The T.V. show.
Nothing like a "Pocket-Rocket" Great car and thanks to If This Car Could Talk for posting.
Right on Mike! Thanks for being such a great supporter!
Easily the nicest Studebaker I've seen in years. Taking the effort to find and install the performance and "nice to have" parts was a real labor of love. Thanks for sharing.
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching and leaving such a nice comment! Keep watching!

And my 1965 Studebaker Cruiser
tip's his hat 🎩 to his slightly
older 😁 brother
the 1964 shown here.
Best regards !
Love you 🥰
Great job. I just sent this video to a real good friend back in Missouri who has a Super Lark. I'm sure he'll go nuts when he sees it. Great engine compartment ( except for the kinked breather hose leading to the air cleaner. Sorry, had to go there.) Bitch'n car!!! Well done!!!
P.S. Can we say "Sleeper"?😊
NICE
Agreed! Thanks and keep watching!
Hello From South Bend Indiana Your Studebaker is Stunning, I went through the Museum Years ago and I Absolutely Fell in LOVE with the Concept Car Called The Predicter it's a Shame it never got the chance to go into Production. Good Job 👍 on the Restoration 👍
Thanks for watching and I'm sure Walt thanks you too! We saw the museum years ago before it was remodeled and would love to go back. Keep watching!
Very interesting. I never heard of this model though a friend in highschool had a 62 GranTurismo 289 4 Spd and my Dad had a 53 1/2 ton Study pickup
They are rarely seen for sure! That's one reason we had to feature it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I grew up in the rust belt during the 1970’s, in my town there was a two-stroke Saab guy, a huge Corvair graveyard, and the Studebaker guy.
Briooks Steven’s designed some beautiful looking cars like this Daytona for Studebaker.
Great comment! Thanks for watching and keep it up!
What a nice Studebaker!! Awesome feature. Love to see this car!
Thanks Terry! We met him at the 67th and Bell cruise so you'll probably see him around!
Thank you Walt! The car is fabulous!. Engine sounds great and what a job adding the AC too!. Studebaker rules!
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for the great comment!
I know walt and this car and he got me involve with the studebaker club alot of nice cars there thanks for this video so people can remember that the big 3 were not always the only way
Awesome job, cuz! Great car, too!
Very nice, I think the hawk was my favorite. Brings back memories too.
Thanks for watching and those Hawks are for sure beautiful! You'll see that in one of our Top Cars features so keep watching!
Absolutely love that thing!! Wonderful job sir. The 'improvements' you added are perfect. And, you are right, it's the perfect size.
Thanks for watching and for the really nice comment! Keep watching!
Wow, that is awesome! I'm a huge Stude fan, the '64 Gran Turismo Hawk and this Lark. Honest, affordable and reliable vehicles.
Show up to Cars and Coffee in one and heads will turn.
Right on! We found this one at a Friday night cruise night! Thanks and keep watching!
Studebaker went on a performance spree with Avanti, and offering the R2 engine in the Lark and Gran Turismo. Unfortunately for them, the Big Three added muscle around the same time. An R2 Daytona is rare, and this is one of the very best!
When I was a kid my cousin had as I remember a 1957 Studebaker Golden Hawk and I really liked the fins.
I still own a "64 Daytona 2 door hardtop with a 289 4 barrel,4 speed,and factory disc brakes.Not an R2 but still very fast.It would literally burn rubber through all 4 gears.Handled good and was always a pleasure to drive.
Congrats! They are great cars! Thanks for watching and keep it up!
Beautiful interior. I would only add factory headrests, or even aftermarket to give it an even more European look, or Mercedes look, which Studebaker was well acquainted with by 1964.
Gorgeous restoration. My family had a 1964 Studebaker Cruiser in dark blue, automatic and air conditioning, It was a beautiful car. We took it on trips because it was more comfortable than our 1965 Ford Galaxies. Love Studebaker's coil spring seats, vanity mirror, and the dash with rocker switches, padded dash, and the stainless steel hub caps and strip between tail lights. I miss that car.
The minute we saw that car, we knew everyone would love it! Thanks for watching and sharing your memory!
Well done! Looking forward to more of your reviews.
Much appreciated!
Nice. One. I Like The Pickup Truck.
Same here! There is one beauty we know of in the valley and we're trying to hook up with him. Keep watching!
We have the same 64 Daytone in white with blue interior, 289 non super charged. Drive it every weekend.
Sweet! Keep cruising!
My Uncle had an Early 50s Studie, All I remember is it was a two door and quite beat up as he was an Alcoholic and didn't maintain anything. When ever I ent anywhere with him, it was $1.00s worth of gas and a quart of oil. I wish I was older when he had the Studie as it was a cool looking car to a pre-teen boy.
Thanks for watching and sharing your memories! Keep watching for more great reminders of cool rides from the past!
Reminds me of a amc rambler
❤
Great video as always, I would've imagine what Studebaker would've been like had both Studebaker and Packard merged together with Hudson and Nash along with Kaiser and Jeep to create AMC in 1954?
Thanks CJ! Really appreciate your support!
@@IfThisCarCouldTalk No problem brother, I've subscribed to you're channel.
Nice work! Wish they made more of them. Or you made more of them lol. Looks like u have the coolest(literally and figuratively) lark out there.
Any ideas on 0 to 60 or a qtr mile time estimate?
Thanks for watching and we totally agree! I'm sure Walt would say thanks! Keep watching!
Hmmm....that would be interesting.
Thx
@@joellamoureux7914Not yet because I want the engine to be fully broken in, after 2500 miles I’ll put it thronged paces.
Great video. Always been a fan of Studes. I had a great Uncle and a good buddy's dad who both had early 60s Larks driven well into the 70s.
My favs go a little further back as I really like the futuristic streamlined look of the '53 era cars.
I'd love to know how much of a challenge mating the Stude engine to a 700R4 tranny was.
Great comment and question. I'll send it on to Walt. Thanks Alan, keep watching!
Great work Dubby! Looks and sounds excellent! Cant wait to drive this one with jakie next and get the R3 Avanti completed.
We love you and are proud of you
Are these things solid lifters, sounds like it 🤷♂️
Yes they are! Good catch and thanks for watching!
Who keeps playing with the microphone?
Just a little tech glitch during the drive. Hope you enjoyed the car and story!
