Man O' Man: The Manta Ray

 I'm in love again.

This time with the Studebaker Manta Ray from 1951.

God, what a car!

The Batmobile for the home, only two hundred plus were made. I adore that turbine and the three rear fins!  

Is the Manta Ray one for you? Is there a toy or model?

    There are a couple of modern Limited Production resin models in 1/43rd scale, by Esval Models and Autocult. Both very expensive. I could not find anything else. But surely someone made a toy of it back in the 1950s ?
