SIA Flashback - One-Day Wonder

the one-day wonder Studebaker van

More Brooks Stevens love, yes, but he whipped up so many unique and interesting designs, and if we had to choose one day to spend with him, it would likely be December 12, 1963, when he met with Charlie Sorensen to design an inexpensive, lightweight, all-fiberglass unit-body car that could theoretically save Studebaker’s automotive business. Stevens worked up the designs and Sorensen worked up the production methods and costs, but, of course, Studebaker shot the design down before it had much of a chance to fly. Still, to watch the two legends conjure a design in just one day, as described by Rich Taylor in SIA #30, September-October 1975, would have been quite gratifying.
