1:18 Scale 1951 Studebaker Custom Black

The early 50's Studebakers featured unique "bullet-nose" styling influenced by famous automotive designer Bob Burke. As a result, Studebaker reached their highest two production years in 1950 and 1951. This futuristic design became very appealing to Street Rodders and Custom Car builders, with it's jet aircraft-inspired front end and unique rear roof line. Mild to wild, the "Stude" Customs offer a welcome escape from the more numerous Ford, Plymouth, and Chevy Coupes seen at Street Rodding events.
