Something neat for the week-end:
a 1935 Studebaker Ace Tow Truck.

This fine and wonderfully restored car found its new
home in the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania in Strasburg.


This is a tonemapped image from an HDRi made out of
3 photos with different exposures.

A different pov can be seen in the WS-section.

*********************************

The Studebaker Corporation, or simply Studebaker, was
a United States wagon and automobile manufacturer
based in South Bend, Indiana. Originally, the company
was a producer of industrial mining wagons, founded in
1852 and incorporated in 1868 under the name of the
Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company. While
Studebaker entered the automotive business in 1902
with electric vehicles and 1904 with gasoline
vehicles, it partnered with other builders of gasoline-
powered vehicles until 1911. In 1913, Studebaker
introduced the first gasoline-powered automobiles
under its own “Studebaker” brand name. Acquired in
1954 by Packard Motor Car Company of Detroit,
Michigan, Studebaker was a division of the Studebaker
Packard Corporation from 1957 to 1962. In 1962, it
reverted to its previous name, the Studebaker
Corporation. While the company left the automobile
business in 1966, Studebaker survived as an
independent closed investment firm until 1967 when it
merged with Worthington to become Studebaker-
Worthington Corp.
The Studebaker name disappeared from the American
business scene in 1979, when McGraw-Edison acquired
Studebaker-Worthington. McGraw-Edison was itself
purchased in 1985 by Cooper Industries, which sold off
its auto-parts divisions to Federal-Mogul some years
later.

Great shot, Thor! Considering it's in a railway museum, I would have expected a hi-rail car. We have some of them at the heritage park in Calgary. Seen one 1930's model on display in our shopping mall a while ago.
PS: They only shine like that in the museum. Trust me, I know!
