1st 700 Quad Posted February 5, 2024 Posted February 5, 2024 I'm in need of a 1953 Studebaker wagon, not the sedan delivery, I THINK it's an old Jimmy Flintstone product but not sure. Like the one in the facebook pic attached.
W Humble Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 I want one too! BTW, by the grille teeth, that's a '54 Stude. I loved that Bourke/Lowey body, and would have bought a 1/1 Conestoga if one had ever come up for sale in restorable condition where I could see it. Not as cool as my old '55 Nomad (long gone!) but almost, if modded to run fast! The real cars are a bit fragile, lightly built vs. Chevy/Ford (have a '54 sedan body to put on a S-10 frame with IROC-Z V-8/T-5, etc. That strange hood fit was actually on many 1/1 Studes! The real '54 grille floated, teeth weren't attached to frame. One of the few kits I'd still be in the market for, if buildable. I have an extra AMT frame/suspension new/unused for it. Wick

W Humble Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 Bill, thanks I tried that source last year after my MCM plea, but no longer available even then. Guess we'll have to search ebay and forums. Wick PS: how do you post those quotes in blue that you and many others have? Forums baffle me; I'm 78, and think a good conrtol is a light switch.
