Somes ya knows, somes ya guesses, somes ya figures out. Sometimes, it's a bit of 'em all. I looked at this car and said "Ghia-Aigle. Gotta be. Reeks of it. Dunno why, but it just does."

Sure enough.

Now this IS a repost, but from 5 years ago and with a different photo.
Identify the make, model and coachbuilder for one point.
This is one for the Rookies only before it is merged.

This one will be re-merged or offered for a quick Expert point very soon - so Rookies, put your skates on if you don't want to miss a relatively easy point!

No more guesses from the Rookies so I'm turning it over to the Experts for a couple of hours before I merge it again.

It sure looks like the Studebaker.  Did you find this online, Woodinsight, or did you scan it?  I've only got two images of the Ghia-Aigle Studebaker, and they are much less detailed.

That's the car!
One point for you before I ask admins to merge it.

Good question but I've had this view on my image database for a long time.
Honestly I can't remember where I scanned it from but I suspect it was from my library rather than the Internet.
