Not quite right. In 1966, Studebaker produced cars in Canada after closing down the South Bend production facilities. The 1966 Studes had Chevy engines (283 and maybe a few 327's, and 230 straight 6's). They also used Chevrolet Powerglides as their automatic transmissions. My best friend had a 1966 4 door with the 283/powerglide. It ran OK, but not as well as the 64 Stude with 289/overdrive he had before that. Unfortunately he wrecked the 64.
The first several years of Avanti production used Studebaker V8's, including some with Paxton superchargers. The supercharged Studebakers were very powerful and fast. If I remember correctly the first factory supercharged Studes were 57 or 58 Hawks, but other models sometimes got the blower motors. I believe that the Avanti got Chevy engines in 1966, probably 327's. The Avanti was the only Studebaker car design that survived after the 1966 models, and it was produced for quite a few years after that, in small numbers, with Corvette engines.
