    True, Bob, and note the absence of S T U D E B A K E R letters across the top of it. Obviously added later, pre-production. BP

                • Regarding post #4611...remarkable in several ways. A reminder of artistic "group think" in the design of cars (regardless of the era), proof to the youth of today, that look at you as if you were a space alien, when you claim gasoline used to sell for twenty cents per gallon, and...what were the chances of getting a "real life" photo of those two particular Studebaker model cars converging more than ten feet from their place of manufacture in South Bend?!

                  • There three Studebakers in that picture. How often does that happen in a random photograph? The car directly in front of the convertible is a 1942/46 Champion.

                    • Terry, I think you are correct. I did not even notice it. I guess I was overwhelmed at seeing two Studebakers in a random photo and didn't think of the possibility of there being a third one. Thanks for pointing it out.
