PIC: Brooklin posted the first (early) pic of the 1959 Studebaker Lark...
Will the new BRK Studebaker Lark be sufficiently different from the Highway Travellers Studebaker Lark so as to justify the purchase of what is sure to be a fine Brooklin? Thanks.

Dillon the BRK is a 1959, the HT is a 1962, is that enough difference?

Studebaker experts: How different was the '59 Lark from the '62 Lark? Thanks.

PICS You judge Dillon. No problem for me, I buy all BRK's.
Here's the "plain jane" 1959 Lark that Brooklin is doing:

Here's the top of the line 1962 Lark Daytona done by Highway Travelers as a 2-door hardtop, a converible, and an Indy 500 Pace Car.

Note the grille differences in Dick's pics, plus the later Lark had round taillights, whereas the original had horizontal ovoid ones. I bet all those SDC members would buy one.

A 59 sedan is more representative of the Larks than a face-lifted 62 convert. Where's Mr. Ed?
