crazyjim Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Finished my 1953 Studebaker the other day. Paint is HOK sunrise pearl with HOK bittersweet pearl on sides and front. Wheels & tires are from the spare parts bin; exhuast also from the parts bin with polished aluminum tips; rolled pans fron & rear; filled the grill up front and the taillights in back and then created new taillight in the pan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Really colorful paint treatment. I like the way you changed the front grills, this looks smoother than the original design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugatti Fan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Nice model. Those old Studebakers are to my eye one of the nicest looking American cars with very restrained styling compared to most in the Chrome and Fins era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
