[aarrggh]

Now there's a real "Which way is it going?" Looks like a windshield opening on the car, not a proper Stude rear window, circa 47-49!

Poor Studebaker Being Ignored.....

Well it might have to do with the experimental design-car, it's not a Chevy... but a Buick.

[Mr. Bill]

It's the Buick LeSabre (concept) from 1951. It was designed for, and used by Harley Earl.

#1212 is interesting, Joe. The folks are lined up to see a model home, I presume?

Note that it is early in the 1950s, before bright-colored cars exploded on the market beginning in 1955. Many dark cars in that photo; maybe one two-tone (much less a tri-tone!).

My, how that would change before the end of the decade. BP

Yep, Levittown; first of the 'cookie-cutter' homes. Now we have wind tunnel inspired 'cookie-cutter' cars to go with those cookie-cutter homes.

Gee Nox I didn't even see that before and its more visible than the Hawk. I guess I focused in on the first Studebaker I saw and stopped there. Thanks for pointing out the '52.

Well you just gave me a chance to show of... & I happened to be the first one who looked close enough!
