Great acquisition. I love having this car in my collection but the color is unimaginative.

The design was so far ahead of anything else in 1953. The colors on the model were the one Studebaker used as their promotional colors upon the introduction of this beautiful car. I have models of this car in 1/43, 1/24 and 1/18.

Yes, Bob, miles ahead of competition in design for 1953. Looks like a car from the 60s.

I'd say the 53 Corvette could give it a run for its money, stylistically.

No Phil don't have it. Don't mind I'am planning to make a custom out of it. If I ever get to it.

Not real fond of the colors. Has great lines for a custom.
