Here are the rest of the pictures. This might be as good an opportunity as you'll get to get one.

I'll take run at this question: tight tolerance machining to allow century old build methods, virtually extinct spare parts, few willing or able to bear the cost or headache of such a project for the resulting car involved. Anything else?

Jack M: Leo Newman and Nate Altman, who had operated a major South Bend Studebaker dealership, bought the dies, tools, manufacturing and promotion rights and a factory building from Studebaker Corporation to continue manufacturing the Avanti beginning with a 1965 model, named Avanti II. The powertrain was largely the same as the concurrent Corvette. Always a hand-crafted custom order, the low production numbers continued in South Bend and later an Ohio location through in the early 1990's under the aegis of subsequent owners. When the original Avanti II styling configuration had become passe, an updated version was applied to a reskin of F-Body Camaros until that platform ceased production. Steve

A.J.: Except for the restyle, the 1948-'50 Custom Eights are part and parcel exactly the same cars as the 1942, 1946-'47 Custom Super Clippers. Steve

Production for the 1948-1949 22nd Series Custom Eight two-door Club Sedan, Body Type 2255, according to Packard 1948-1950 by Robert J Neal, page 35: Model Year 1948: 547; 1949: 243; Total: 790.

JamesR: Survival rates generally track relative to the initial production numbers with the wild card being specific models that resonate with car enthusiasts for whatever reason. The Studebaker Avanti, Corvettes and first-generation Thunderbirds you cite are perfect examples; in spite of relatively low production numbers, their survival rates are extremely high. Conversely, the Rambler/AMC Marlins, being simply a fastback sport coupe version of the standard Classic or Ambassador lines was a niche model at best. AMC, whose reputation at the time was still no-nonsense economical transportation, was the last company most of the sport coupe buying public would look to for their purchase choice. The GM and Ford brand loyal scoffed at the prospect of a Marlin; Mopar guys turned to a Barracuda or Charger. That left the AMC loyalists as the primary customers...and they were few and far between. Even within AMC customers, the Classic 770-H or Ambassador 990-H hardtops provided all the Marlins did except the unique fastback styling. Springing for buckets and console in the 770-H or 990-H, especially the latter; have a sporty coupe to enjoy and possibly a better trade-in offers in a couple years. Marlin for 1965: 10,327; 1966: 4,547; 1967: 2,545. Even Ambassador hardtop buyers voted with their wallets in 1967: 990: 6,140; DPL: 12,552...both which base-priced higher than the Marlin! Still, if you can find a well-equipped '67 Marlin in great condition with good colors and realistic price, buy it! It's unlikely you'll find another. Steve

For Sale: 1951 Nash Ambassador 4dr Sedan - $8,000 - Grangeville, ID 1951 Nash Ambassador - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle automotive... (craigslist.org) Seller's Description: This is a 1951 Nash Ambassador Super. It is in nice running condition and drives well. This is a six-volt system. I have owned it since 2004. It is mostly original. The oil whip air filter and has been replaced with a conventional one, but the original comes with the car along with some other extras: radio, Nash hubcaps, original owner's manual. It has been kept in a shed, out of the snow and rain. It could use a little sprucing up. Maybe a new paint job & chrome. The headliner is in good shape but does have a little tear at the rear window. It's a fun ride just as it is and gets taken out for a spin occasionally. The front seat folds down to make the classic Nash bed. I've never had the mattress for it but one could be easily fabricated. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for looking. Contact: no phone listed.

The Standard Catalog of American Cars, 1946-1975, Edited by John Gunnell states 2,804 1963 Dodge Custom 880 2dr Hardtops built.

The 1960-1962 Valiant styling was far too sophisticated for the price segment into which it was sold. The styling should have been assigned to either the Imperial or at least the Chrysler.

(craigslist.org) Seller's Description: Family owned for 20+ years runs and drives good. I drive it to cruse-ins on the weekends when I can. 232 6-cylinder with a Borg Warner M11 transmission.

I posted this for the performance car guys who are always on the prowl for big block, 4-speed Mopar intermediates to restore. Although this Coronet is a rundown mess, if its solid and the data plate checks out to the powertrain it has, its considered choice by them.

JamesR: I have been on the lookout for a '67 Marlin to post here but only one really rough, ratty example has shown up on Craigslist in the last few years. At only 2,545 cars, they're scare and likely have a low survival rate. But, I agree, the 1967 Marlin based on the 118" wb Ambassador platform was by far the best styled, most attractive of the three-year model run. The other overlooked AMC is the '67 Ambassador DPL convertible, of which only 1,260 were built, though a few of those do occasionally turn-up for sale. Steve

As of this morning, Thursday 3-9-2023: " This posting has been deleted by its author. Someone bought themselves a nice 1932 Nash for a good price, hope they take good care of it and enjoy it.

Good looking Imperial for the price. Whoever buys it needs to adjust the torsion bars to return the front standing height to factory height, plus route the exhaust properly. An Imperial is a luxury car, not a boy-racer hot rod or some other adolescent foolishness.

I wouldn't sell your 1947 hardtop-convertible either, although that Hornet coupe is a gem, it will quickly find a good home. Consider restoring your 1947 hardtop-convertible as if it were built then as a show car for the new car shows, then assigned to one of the company's top executives.
