More bad news from Indianapolis. They stopped making Studebakers there in 1966. IIRC Studebakers were built in South Bend. There may have been a component plant of some kind in Indianapolis, but AFAIK all the cars were assembled in South Bend.

Studebaker USA stopped producing cars and trucks in South Bend in 1964. Studebaker Canada continued producing only cars, in Canada during 1965 and 1966. The last "real" Studebaker was made in 1966, though a private company kept making Avantis with a different makers drivetrain, for many years.

Maybe he was thinking of Auburn-Cord-Dusenburg?
