Mayhem as I have no box for this model. Still it is a nice example as the car is mint and has the hunter and pointer dog. The figures tend to go missing especially the dog..
The Studebaker Lark Wagonaire was first released in 1965 and made through 1968. That would be 4 years for those of you keeping score.
Another feature of this car is the sliding roof. It is closed in photos 1 and 3 and open in 2 and 4.
It is a fine looking model and perfect for towing the caravan trailer.
Missing box or not, this is a really great set!!
When I was in high school I had a Lark (not the wagonaire). That was before seat belts and all you got was an AM radio. FM back then was not used much. The front bench seat had a lever and you could fold the back down to make a bed. They was known as a "WHOW at the drive. WHOW = Whore House On Wheels. Long ago and far away but not forgotten. It was great on gas and gas was 25 cents a gallon but it went through a gallon of 50 weight tractor oil every day.
Thank you very much Scott. I still need the box as I am a crazy collector.
Thank you very much Thomas. Reminds me I have a photo of the actual car. That would be a cool museum to visit.
Thank you very much fhrjr2. That is some interesting information. I fear I abused many a car in my youth.
