AAM '54 Stud Connestoga


Recommended Posts

I like your '54 Stude wagon a lot! Years back, the late & great customizer, Dick Dean, and I were discussing chopping a (1:1) '53-'54 Stude coupe that I was considering purchasing, and he showed me sketches that he had done of a '55 Stude Conestoga w/ a '70-'71 Camaro front end grafted on. He wanted to do that to the Stude I wanted to build, and that was one of the few times that I disagreed w/ how he designed & executed his customs. Yup - he went and built that '55 for someone else, and it didn't turn out half bad, afterall.

I, too, look forward to seeing a new 1/25 Conestoga body in resin soon.

The interior mods are almost done. I managed to save a 54 salesmans binder from the trash when I worked for Studebaker so it'll be pretty accurate.

I will also have the correct colors in Acrylic Enamel taken from a Stude factory color chart. I may offer paint with the kit...we'll see what the bottom line needs to be first.
