After exhaustive investigation both abroad and in this country, followed by the building of 15 experimental chassis and bodies and
countless road tests at Studebaker's million dollar proving ground, a remarkable new-type car evolved by Studebaker engineers.
Because Mr. Erskine was primarily responsible for the development of this evolutionary new car, the board of directors of the
Studebaker Corporation unanimously decreed that it should be named the "Erskine Six".
The model on sale is supposed to have been imported in Argentina as new. The list of owners is not known. The last full restoration
has been done in 1980. It has been sold to the actual owner in 1982. Since there, the vehicle has been maintained in excellent mechanical
and body condition.
It is a very rare model, most probably unique in Argentina. Very few models are known over the world: see the site:
