A special “Thank You” to the Los Angeles Chapter, San Diego Chapter and Beach Cities, Orange and Inland Empire Chapter of the Studebaker Drivers Club for spending the day with us on March 2, withstanding less than ideal car show weather. I hope everyone in attendance got to see and enjoy the club’s variety of vehicles. Be sure to mark your calendars for the SDC’s upcoming events.<\/p>\n
