Most likely a local dealer had some new Studebakers in a community parade of some sort. Maybe they were carrying some local dignitaries.

Port-of-Spain Trinadad

Another old magazine photo.
I wonder if the one horse power vehicle is a Studebaker?

I wonder where 2947 was taken? The vehicles are predominantly late 40's/early 50's British cars. From the lower right they are a P3 Rover, Austin Devon, Vauxhall Velox and English Ford Anglia. Across the street is another Devon, an Austin 12 or 16, another Velox and another P3 Rover. The car crossing the street in the distance looks like a Ford or Mercury.

Andy: Do you know any more about the Avanti in 2953? That kinda looks like a South Bend background, but I can't place it.

Reason I ask is that it has those wire wheels, and we know Studebaker PR man Bill Dredge had his Avanti equipped with a set of the Dayton knock-off wire wheels like those on Steve Doerschlag's June 1963 Motor Trend cover car Hawk. BP
