Studebaker/Chrysler?

Anyone ever seen one of these? It's from a picture on the Studebaker Addicts International Facebook page.

Not sure what that brochure is, but I remember seeing something similar years ago from Chrysler. It was a report on how they had purchased a '54 Willys sedan and tested it for comparison. There was a photo in it where they had water sprayed the car to check for water tightness....the front carpet was soaked from leaks around the windshield gasket.

i've often found it interesting how many parts from the flat head chryslers and studebakers would interchange.

Is it a Chrysler engineering report on the 1953 Studebaker? It is not uncommon for auto companies to buy their competitor's products for evaluation, especially an all-new vehicle like the '53 Stude was.

In that barely legible bottom line, that does say "Engineering Division", correct?

THAT explains it all, they were spying, to learn more about the revolutionary New, European Look Studebakers!
