Greg, that Studebaker is 1/18 scale manufactured by Acme and sold thru the Danbury Mint. The quality is not up to DM standards.

Right, you are Pete.

Greg, as I'm sure Pete knows, when DM stopped producing diecast, they still wanted an outlet for 'toy' cars and contracted with Acme to provide them, most exclusively for DM only sales. They sold many different ones, most, if not all, in 1/18th as far as I know.
