Probably an Aftermarket Radio designed to fit some other Make. A Studebaker Radio would be a Philco.
That is not to say though, that this Radio if working or repairable, could not be properly installed in a '47 to '52 Stude. and work.Last edited by StudeRich; 10-03-2020, 12:37 PM.StudeRich

I mentioned this radio in a picture Matt posted earlier. It is an aftermarket radio made by the Automatic Radio company. It's possible that, if the so called "radio delete" plate is removed from the dash, this radio might fit.
Closer examination of the picture suggests that it might be an aftermarket radio to fit a 51-52 Chevrolet dash.RadioRoy, specializing in AM/FM conversions with auxiliary inputs for iPod/satellite/CD player. In the old car radio business since 1985.

I take it your saying the 1 1/2" part on the lower part of the dash is removed when a factory radio is installed.
Here's a picture of a stock 51-52 Chevrolet radio for comparison. Look at the styling of the dial. That downward curve on each end of the dial is unique to 51-52 Chevrolet.
Look at the placement of the dial, the knobs, and the speaker relative to each other. They are the same on your aftermarket radio and the Chevrolet radio.
