Late '40s Studebaker -- Commander, I think. Champions had a similar taillight but with only one bar in the middle rather than three.

I have a pair of each that I don't need, but you're a long way away. If you can't find anything near you, let me know.

50Fraud beat me to it http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Dug up my "Burness" Spotters Guide" , and they are probably the same in `47-`49 , but in the Spotters Guide , only the `49 have a clear wiew of the 3 Ribs ."Car Craft" June `58 had a "How-To" on Studebaker Taillights for All pickups , and they refeer to em as `47`s.
Hope this was of help to you http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
