A Studebaker Lark VIII concept car built by Francis Lombardi unveiled at the 1960 Turin Motor Show. It was 1 of 4 italian rebodied Larks.
This Studebaker Lark Italia Coupé built by Francis Lombardi was one of four rebodied Larks commissioned by the American Company.
In 1960 the entrepreneur and importer Renato Bornigia commissioned Pietro Frua and Francis Lombardi to carry out a project to mass-produce (1000 cars) a variant of the Studebaker Lark in 2-door coupe and 4-door sedan versions.
VERY NICE, BUT SADLY, TOO LATE!
Peter, do you know what was the cause for Studebaker’s closure and how it could be avoided?
