Found this pic in the Studebaker Museum pics, thought i'd share.
look at the wheel well cutouts, looks a lot like Avanti, dont care for the Contintal kit, but that was popular back then. Was this a prototype Conestoga?

Interesting. The caption says it was a rendering of a Stude station wagon in 1952. I guess this was an idea for a wagon - not necessarily a prototype since apparently no real car was built from the drawing. But a neat idea. Probably bigger than the Conestoga we know.
