1953 Studebaker Commander Starliner - 1:18 Scale 53STUD
MSRP Motormint Price Qty  
$39.98 $24.98

Detailed Description
Americas Best Automotive Design of the 1950s
1953 Studebaker™ Commander Starliner

Sleek, Low and Clean
Many books have been written about Studebakers demise, most blaming poor management decisions. One factor that certainly did not negatively affect Studebaker was their designs. In fact the Robert Bourke (of the famous Raymond Loewy Studio) designs for 1953 have been called the best of the decade. Sales of these “Loewy Coupes”, as they became to be known, shocked the Studebaker executives who thought their sedans would be the big sellers. Coupes outsold sedans 4-to-1 in 1953, which unfortunately caused many production and delivery delays. The best selling and most expensive of these coupes was the Commander Starliner, which cost $2374 and sold almost 20,000 cars.

So Realistic It Even Has Independent Suspension
Our 1:18 scale precision Die-Cast replica of the 1953 Starliner is so realistic it even has independent spring suspension. The hood opens revealing the 326.6 cubic inch V-8 engine. The trunk opens and has a full size spare tire. The steering wheel turns the front wheels. The instrument panel has the understated European look of the original. With its factory baked-enamel finish, the Starliner will turn heads in your den just like it did on Americas roads 50 years ago.
