Ask Richard Quinn. He has had some other vintage Studebaker factory photos blinged up in color by Patty at 'Imbued With Hues' She does a wonderful job.

It is looking south east from the Mound Road side of the Tech Center, south entrance. The building in the background is the GM Design Staff Studios. One of the ponds is just behind the line of trees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids & grand kids have no idea how cool their parents/grand parents were a long long time a go. 2. I wish I had a photo of my girlfriend sitting where the motor was supposed to be on my Shelby wire brushing the frame. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Since I'm one of the 2 or 3 Hollywood Graham guys on the forum I 'll post this. Unless I posted it before, never published. 1951, Studebaker proving grounds. Looking at the spot light and the outside pipes, I need to ask my dad if he owned it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt G Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 Back to the Black & White - Dashboard is of a 1938 Nash, Publicity photo issued by Nash as part of their PR Press kit. The lady was not listed as a factory accessory that went with the car.... The photo of the engine I believe is of an L29 Cord in the Weymann bodied coupe that I posted some earlier views here someplace several months ago. Photo was taken some time in the early 1950s (if it is that car) when located in Brooklyn, NY and owned by author and model builder Herb Lozier. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary_Ash Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 As stated above, "Girls on cars, boys in front of cars." My 1953 Studebaker Commander in 1963 with a girlfriend aboard and with me dressed for a formal party. The car is long gone, but I still have the old tux, can just fit into it, though the waist has been let out in the pants. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked again and saw a handle at the rear of the door which usually indicates the hinges are on the opposite end (at front)--if we're talking about the same car... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twin6 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Rear door handle is at the front of the door, so rear hinged. Maybe there's another post or photo causing confusion. To my knowledge, sport models used the "T" type door handle, while tourings always had stirrup type. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzcarnerd Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 From Hungary, it seems the plane is a Bristol 83B of which Hungary had five as basic trainers. Maybe a Tracta car on the left. The truck I have no idea. The car on the right maybe a Durant Star? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Maybe a repurposed Turcat-Mery from circa 1912? I think the photo date could be circa 1930. Ballston Spa. NY state? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 San Fernando Valley 1911. Not a large photo unfortunately but an intriguing looking limo/bus. From a closer look at what little can be seen of the radiator maybe it is a White?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
