• Studebaker Champ Pickup

    From k9zw@21:1/224 to All on Wed Jul 13 19:24:56 2022
    Traded a car for a very nice 1965 Studebaker Champ pickup truck with the 5.7L V-8 and overdrive with 3-speed.

    Interesting vehicle as the cab is basically taken from the Studebaker Lark sedan and the box was made on Dodge tooling Studebaker bought used.

    Not as butch as the F100 and Apache competitors, but not as slick as the Ranchero and El Camino car based lighter trucks.

    Wow, just wow. I have always thought those were sharp looking trucks!
