The 1950 Studebaker Champion Starlight coupe attracted motorists with its ultramodern styling -- the aerospace industry was a fascination for the country during the space race and influenced automotive design heavily during that time. Its center "nose" called to mind an airplane, and its wraparound rear window and long, horizontal rear deck were radically different from "teardrop" cars of the 1930s and 1940s. The 1950 and 1951 Studebakers marked the beginning of flamboyant, futuristic styling. Studebaker led the way in this styling and marketing change, and was one of the first manufacturers to completely restyle its line. Robert E. Bourke, an automotive stylist who worked for the renowned industrial designer Raymond Loewy, was largely responsible for the 1950 Studebaker's styling, now considered a classic of its time.
With fighter-plane styling in the front and streamlined-railway-car "Vista Dome" treatment in the back, there've been few cars as stunning before or since. The design leadership was matched with comparatively up-to-the-minute engineering to make it more than worthy of contemporary consideration. Was there anything more modern on the road back then? Not really.
The Virgil Exner-penned Studebaker line was sleek and instantly dated everything else on Detroit's showroom floors. The car's unique profile provided the Studebaker marque with an easily recognized body shape copied as soon as possible by the other US manufacturers in their 1949 models. For 1950 and 1951, all Studebakers received a freshening of the 1947 design with the addition of the "bullet nose" (sometimes referred to as the "spinner" front) front sheet metal; when combined with the Starlight body style, Studebakers looked comparatively futuristic at the time. This version of the Starlight body style continued until the end of the 1952 model year.
