Commander 57 ◊ 2018-09-08 15:06	First to admit I'm not too familiar with non-USA built Studebakers. But your comment has brought my attention more closely to the shape of the fin insert and I agree, it looks more like the Silver Hawk pattern as framed by the side trim. Yet the car definitely does not appear to have a "B" pillar. Could indeed be a Silver Hawk hardtop!
