Just received this brochure in today’s mail. NEW; and G O R G E O U S!! The 1951 Studebaker Champion in Rio Green! In coupe configuration – 1:18th scale. And although not specified in the literature, no doubt, as in recent issues past, made, outstandingly for them, by Acme.
$179 + $12 shipping. 1-800-822-6133 or http://www.danburymint.com

Shame it's not a 1/24 scale. 1/18 is just too big and take up way too much space. Thanks for sharing though

I have both 1/24 and 1/18 scale Studebakers in my collection...no need for more.

I received the brochure via email. I got excited for a second. Maybe a new 1:24 model being released? No such luck. It is a very nice Stud Baker, though.

Yep, 'precision 1:24th scale diecast' is history. Glory days: gone - we take what we can. Is this That? Well; for me, no. For the 1:18th guys? Very well - perhaps!
