Studes in Roadside Americana photos

[Dwain G.]

This was actually taken off my TV screen. Seen sitting in a parking lot in the 1950 movie "Alcatraz Experiment". Just thought it as kind of unique.

I remember seeing that movie within the past year also. I think I remember seeing one or two other scenes with Studebakers in them. I did not notice that this one appears to be two tone with a light colored top. That is unusual. Can't say I ever saw that combination on that vintage from the factory. May be a repaint.

I think there's probably been less than five in this entire thread of thousands of pictures of Studes. Now, how many pictures have beens searched that DIDN'T make this thread (no Studes at all)?

Might as well admit it...they just look tooooo modern for a sixties photo!

# 3507 - Yeh, I think I spot a red GT Hawk at about 4th in the line of cars that appear to have all rear ended each other.

& it seems like a mean red MoPar is entering the picture too...

Notice how few of the cars have whitewalls.
