Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / August 2005"Must Read" Quote: ON TOPIC!
Yee-Haa! You never know what will be buried in a given article. Amos Press' September 2005 Muscle Car Enthusiast magazine was in subscriber hands this past week. In it is an article written by Paul Zazarine entitled, "Prime Time Stan Rarden: An Interview with the Creator of The American Musclecar TV Show." The format of the article is a long Question-and-Answer Interview of about 50 random questions Paul Zazarine posed to Stan Rarden, followed by Stan's answers. Most of the way through the article, this question is posed: "What's the weirdest thing that ever happened [while filming American Musclecar]? Something you just didn't expect to happen." Stan Rarden's answer, EXACT quote; "The day we had three cameras focused on a big-block Chevelle in the left-hand lane at The Pure Stock Drags and an R-3 Studebaker in the right lane blew his doors off. That one didn't make the show, but it did make our Christmas Party blooper reel." Ya' gotta' love that! (I'll leave editorial remarks about why it didn't make the show to subsequent posters in this thread.)

The old saying win on Sunday, sell on Monday, had material like that gotten into the publics hands, maybe the company would have lasted longer. That was not an out take, that was a take out, take out anything that doesn't promote a mystique about certain cars. The History Chanel is running a very comprhensive series on cars, it is almost as if the word Studebaker was purposely. Under every topic they left out all menttion of Studebaker. No mention about them when they did Police Cars, no mention over the last 5 episodes. Bill With 3 cameras pointed on the losing car, the wrapper may have been out of frame making the video useless. I assume they thought they'd show the brand X pulling away and follow it down the strip. As it turned out, they quessed the winner wrong, perhaps making the video crap. > How Sad is that?

Guess the old adage about if you don't like the history rewrite it holds true! Glad at least the author asked the question and the answer was printed.
