1951 Studebaker Manta Ray

This is supposed to closely replicate the not too well known but definitely memorable Studebaker Manta Ray car. This car was produced in 1951-52.
The Studebaker Manta Ray was a one-off custom car built by Glen Hire and Vernon Antoine of Whittier, California in 1952. Assembled with fiberglass molds using 1950s aircraft design as inspiration, it looks unlike anything else on the road, sporting a center turbine-like grille and three tail fins.

This car seems to have taken the same turn as Cadillac in the 50's and early 60's where they made car models that were inspired by rocket ships & aircraft. Only 249 of these unusual cars were made, making the finding one of these cars extremely rare.
I have checked and this should be the first Studebaker Manta Ray on the Brick Rigs workshop.
