Here it looks like a tri-star with an 8. Ah, I hadn't seen your comment, jrrd73 -- Last edit: 2009-12-10 23:52:34

Commander 57 ◊ 2010-02-15 19:28	Unfortunately, it's wrong. The raised bar-to-the-lock level denotes '54 vs '53, not Champion vs Commander. Commanders in '53 (unlike in '54) had the name "Commander" in script on the right side of the trunk lid. This is a 1953 Studebaker Champion Starliner Regal. (There should be an "S" over the trunk star, BTW)
