Wow, really spectacular. A fabulous model builder -- great photographer too.

Sadly, I can remember when most of the real cars were new.

Gads! A 1950 Studebaker bullet-nosed 'Starlight' coupe. Brilliant and famous design in its time

The Avanti was a clever, original design ...

But I was never as fond of it as the '53.

When my Ma was growing up, a family next door built their very beautiful home atop a hill next door. The owner, Mr. R collected Studebakers and had them parked along the drive....Must have been a sight to see. (Sigh!)

These cars are very beautiful. I wonder if they are insured? And how much does it cost to insure such cars and new sports cars?

Hey! I also often wonder how much insurance for a particular car costs, especially when it comes to expensive cars or sports cars. Somehow I wondered, are acuras expensive to insure (https://www.quoteyeti.com/acura-insurance-rates/)? And I found this site where you can see reviews of various insurance companies. I don't need it yet, but if someone is looking for a similar service, then I recommend checking this one.
