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.

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

Well, you can have the second one I find. ?

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.
