This is the best looking Studebaker design I've ever seen... looks like a '41 Willys

Nice rear bumper, the v shape and rounded ends look good
Simple and good looking hood looks just like a Willys American, and the dual grills look better than the 40 Willys, but not quite as good as a 41 Willys grill

One bent grill piece



This look anything like a Studebaker to you? I don't think so. But that's what all the
manufacturer stuff on it says it is. Better proportions than the business coupe Dodge too.
