July 10, 200619 yr Guess the manufacturer: - One of their cars had a four piece rear window. (4 individual pieces of glass) - In the early 1950s they won the "Fashion Academy Award". - A post war vehicle made by this brand had front & rear fenders that were interchangeable. - One of their most recognizable cars featured a twin-port grille & super aerodynamic nose. - They made a car during the muscle car craze with a Fiberglass body & forced induction.

July 11, 200619 yr Yeah... Buick61 seems to be right. Appears to be Studebaker... 1953 Fashion Academy Award winner...
July 11, 200619 yr And that is one sweet Stude. Studebaker started out making horse-drawn wagons and such, too, from what I foggily recall... Edited July 11, 200619 yr by ocnblu
July 11, 200619 yr Author Yes, even the title of the thread was a little bit of a giveaway. Studebaker was THE ONLY car manufacturer that started out making horse drawn carriages and transitioned successfully into the horseless kind. ------------- Still unanswered: - A post war vehicle made by this brand had front & rear fenders that were interchangeable. - They made a car during the muscle car craze with a Fiberglass body & forced induction.
July 11, 200619 yr 68, you need to give less information. I knew the answer before I clicked on the thread.
July 11, 200619 yr Yes, even the title of the thread was a little bit of a giveaway. Studebaker was THE ONLY car manufacturer that started out making horse drawn carriages and transitioned successfully into the horseless kind. Well....Studebaker and Pontiac. Still unanswered: - A post war vehicle made by this brand had front & rear fenders that were interchangeable. It was the Familia concept. Never made it to production.- They made a car during the muscle car craze with a Fiberglass body & forced induction.Avanti.
July 11, 200619 yr Author Well I was thinkning of THIS prouction vehicle... Front & rear fenders interchange. http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-1940-194...PU-green-le.jpg As far giving less info., well I want to make the trivia more accesible to the forum. I'll try to make the questions tougher then, a few times recently (Auto Union & Plymouth) it took a while for the question to be answered correctly.
July 11, 200619 yr Well I was thinkning of THIS prouction vehicle... Front & rear fenders interchange. I guess I just never took notice. Interesting.
