Explore the stopping power of those newfangled disc brakes. Irony: two failed bigtime manufacturers, Studebaker and the jet, a Convair 990. And as always, if you like this video, send a dollar to the Studebaker National Museum in South Bend, www.studebakermuseum.org. And for places to drive your Studebaker, go to my web site, www.weekenddriver.com.

Iaccoca insisted that the Mustang had to have front disc brakes,to be a proper sports car.Maybe Mustang needed front disc brakes to compete with Studebakers.
Crosley had the first disc brakes in 1950 with the Hotshot! I had one. KVS (class of 1961)
Great Studebaker Commercial,Avanti was the first American mass-produced car to feature standard disc brakes.
Thanks for putting a video on with some shots of the most beautiful jetliner ever built, the Convair 990.
