There were four Studebaker station wagons available in 1957 - The Broadmoor V8 4-door, the Provincial V8 4-door, the Parkview V8 2-door, and the Pelham 6-Cylinder 2-door. In prior years, Studebaker station wagons were typically called Conestrogas, honoring the Studebaker-built covered wagons that helped to win the American West - but by 1957 that name was apparently no longer used. It's impossible to tell from your quiz photo which of the four 1957 Studebaker station wagons is shown - they all would have looked identical in this area. Take your pick.

Well, there also would have been the Scotsman 6-cylinder two-door and a handful of Custom and Deluxe four-door wagons, but you are right: one can't tell from the detail shot in the puzzle picture. It is the rarest of those you mentioned, a 1957 Studebaker Commander Parkview. One more point for you.
