Studebaker Drivers Club Keystone Region, Spring Mills, PA;
The Keystone Region began as a dream in the minds of a handful of Studebaker enthusiasts and continues today with great visions of future accomplishments.
East McKeesport, Pa. was the site of the third annual meeting of the Studebaker Drivers Club, a small and struggling auto club devoted to the preservation and enjoyment of Studebaker vehicles. The year was 1967, and public sentiment related to Studebaker and its automobiles was at low ebb. “Studies”, especially Post War models, were readily available at low cost, and, to many experts, it seemed that these automobiles would never be worth much more than junk prices. Yet with this as a backdrop, Harry Barnes and some of his fellow Studebaker fanatics were able to build a fire that still warms the hearts of Studebaker enthusiasts, especially in Central Pennsylvania.
