Thought this was a pretty cool website. You can find almost any kind of
car and what movies and tv shows it was in.  Over 100 Stude entries.

I ran through the list. Pretty good list. Lots of French movies with
Studes. One that they forgot was Back to the Future. Not only was there a
nice back view of a Starlight Coupe at the end of the movie just when Doc
sends Marty back to the future, but there was a Studebaker Dealership in
lights on the opposite side of the street of that Starlight. Way cool.

Someone in another NG that some of us here visit was wondering what
kind of car Boston Blackie drove on the TV series (not in the movies)

anyone know, of the top of their head?

The just released movie Hollywoodland (about the mysterious death of the
actor who played Superman on TV in the 50's) has one scene with a nice
bullet-nose in it.  It's accompanied by a snide comment about the
appearance of the car.

Thanks very much for this link.  It's wide-ranging, but not yet what you'd
call comprehensive, like the Internet Movie DataBase site is.  I did not see
the 1985 "Mischief," a sort of Canadian "American Graffiti," which has a
Studebaker in a starring, albeit uncomplimentary, role.  Looks like they
need more input from us.
