This taxi could be Scotsman based (note no hood ornament and painted h/l rims) and the only difference from the front was the grille mesh (horizontal rectangles for '57 and eggcrate for '58). Photo too dark to tell. The Scotsman was the only '58 sedan that continued use of the '57 fender tips. -- Last edit: 2010-02-21 02:58:42
Commander 57 ◊ 2011-08-06 04:33	Changing this to 1958 as that was the first year for Studebaker's Econ-O-Miler taxi vehicles.
