Not sure if these are Studebakers but Santa Fe carried auto bodies in gondolas. The front ends wioth motors(?) were shipped separately.

Hello Group,

Going from memory right now--my library is currently boxed away during our house remodeling--I believe that there is a photo of automobile bodies being shipped by the method shown in the SFRM&HS book about automobile and furniture cars. 

Cheers,
