What truck is this?

I saw this painting today and really like the idea of modeling the scene but I'm no truck guy, I build planes. Anybody got an I.D. On the make model and year of this so I can find a kit?

This is a Lori Deiter "The Great Escape" canvas wall art print featuring a rusted Studebaker truck in a field.

Haha, more looking and I find a version with pigs in it, running from the farm, thus the AI assertion that it is called "the great escape"

Its a 1953 Studebaker S series pickup. There are resin and printed kits for this truck, the body style was from 1949 to 53.

Thank you very much RacerX !

In fact i was just on a site called Entz, they have a really nice 1953 body with removable hood. I just bought a chopped VW pickup body from them that looks like the Hot Wheels vw van from 1996 . Sorry i cant post the pic the site wont allow the format.

Thanks for the lead Barly, i had a feeling i would find it in my collection. I like the 57 to 59s best for that era, but the 37 is my real favorite.

I like this truck style ! Looking forward to the diorama but I may have to pick one up too in order to make a clean version for my collection!
