I love this photo.
I’m not sure if it’s factory Original, but it is a very nice combination.

C-C = Cameo Ivory with Red pinstripe.
216 = Red interior that would have a Parchment headliner.

Standard inside rear view mirror.
No outside mirror as this was an option in 1965.

Don't get me wrong; Studebaker had some great low cost innovations over the years; like a lock up torque converter in my 53. GM didn't use a lock up TQ until the 80s. But by 1965 the grave was already being dug for the Studebaker autos.
