Studes in Roadside Americana photos

[8E45E]

Craig, don't you read Hemmings Classic Car? This was the exact topic of my September 2015 column, [COLOR=#b22222][B]The Name Game.

Yep!

And I think you mentioned it on the Forum before that when you posted that photo of your '58 2 door post..ooops, sedan!

Anybody have ANY idea where or what we are seeing in #5324?

Almost none of the Cars can be I.D.'d because they are too tiny, but if they are Studebakers, WHERE IS that?

None of those buildings appear to be Studebaker Factory Buildings, but a lot of the Cars look alike as in a Auto Co. Lot and mostly all light colors whatever they are.

I believe there are Studebakers, Rich. for example, I believe this is a '55 sedan (double click it to open):


And here are two more:


This is Hartford Conn, the Hemmings article is here: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2...ticut-1950s-3/ If you click on the picture in the Hemmings article, it will take you to a photo-sharing site that will allow you to blow the picture up REALLY BIG.

Here is a better view of the '55 sedan:

This was the scene next to the Packard Motor Company the morning after the Fort Worth flood of 1949. From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram Collection



I think the car closest to the camera is a '41 Studebaker of some sort, but is the light colored pickup a Coupe Express or a Packard cut down with a truck bed on it?

Did I hear someone say "That'll buff out".

From the skid marks, looks like the fairly-new Studebaker rolled while trying to avoid the old beat-up, bald tire Ford which started to pull out in front of it? Perhaps the Ford should have gone to the garage in the background for the $10.95 brake job? The Stude belongs to a paving company, and appears to have dumped some asphalt, so perhaps was a bit top-heavy.
