Here are two Studebaker pickup trucks as done by Castline/M2 Machines - Auto-thentics. One is a stock 1954 pickup and the other is a mildly custom re-wheeled 1950 Studebaker pickup truck. Both are really nicely done as diecasts and look great on display. As an independent, Studebaker needed to refresh their cars with various inexpensive methods but they did a fine job ..... and waiting in the wings was the awesome Avanti.

I have several 1/64 scale Studebaker pickups. Always thought they were beautiful in 1/1 scale.

They were good-looking pickup trucks, Bob. Studebaker did a good job with limited resources

Thanks, Ed ! Castline/M2 has certainly made many fine replicas and has been one to raise the bar in 1/64 scale model automobiles.

It is amazing the level of detail and overall accuracy that they are able to obtain at such a small scale.

Though not a pick-up truck, here are pictures of model I have. I guess it is more of a utility truck. The graphics on front fenders and doors are quite good.
