When I get to a real pc I'll post another picture.

Grandpa Simpson's '54 Starliner looks like it has a Hawk GT instrument panel!

Could it have an R2 under the hood?

Almost a GT roofline. jimmijim

I'm really impressed with the accuracy of the drawing like the right number of vertical lines in the grill, no B-pillar, the hubcaps, the stainless strip on the rear fender, and the vent in the fender. Someone was paying attention. And they identified the year and model correctly in the story -- not calling it a Coupe or a Starlight. I'd love to know who put that in there and why.

They also had the correct interior light above and behind the driver's head.

It was in a episode again tonight for Valentine's day. It was also a prize in the Simpsons Tapped Out game.

The only thing I see that could be better, is the Side view Mirror is on the Wrong side.

I see a steering wheel inside. Looks to be right hand drive.

I bet the author has one.

The roof's way too high, but otherwise, he's got it.

Keep in mind it does have to fit cartoon characters whose heads are way too tall!

So the Korean animators like Studebaker's, eh? Who would have thought?

Abe's Studebaker made another appearance this week:

Notice it got back to left hand drive.
