A colourful start of the week.



Most often, we receive black and white photos of old cars. But today something different. A 1937 Studebaker Coupe Express pick up in an interesting condition was photographed by John Sandoval and sent in. Only 2200 -2500 of these beauties were produced. No one knows the exact number. This one was built in the short-lived California located assembly plant. 
Even though the sales were not originally promising, this fine example of styling and looks which were based on the passenger vehicle of that same year can only be attributed to a woman's classiness and taste for the Art Deco finer things in the life of that Era.

We wish you all a colourful week!

Yes, very stylish and I think the Studebaker pickups of the fifties were very nice. Hudson also made some good looking pickups at that time.

I wonder if the XK120 could have been the inspiration for its Styling.
