HI Elizabeth Cherry, Happy to read you enjoy this Studebaker :-) Lou

Thanks to you and Scott for a peek at a beautiful 'Studie' on a cold Miller Beach day. Always a big fan of this truck because it's timeless styling remained intact for a decade or so. Although finances were also a factor, the swept back windscreen and the streamlined cab were ahead of their time at intro. When they were fighting the Germans in WW2, Studebaker contracted to build heavy trucks, for the Russian army, mostly 6x6s which retaned the light truck cab. That same styling with the raked windshield is being used on Russian built trucks to this day. Warm wishes for the winter brother, keep on showin' us sunshine in the meantime...

The Studebaker Scotsman line was quite popular, they sold over 20,000 which was good business for Studebaker. They reacted to the recession of 1957-58 before any of their competitors, bringing out the Scotsman while they retooled for the 1959 Lark. The Lark was the first compact car, and beat the competition from Ford (Falcon) Chevrolet (Corvair) and Plymouth (Valiant) to market by a full year. The Lark was the last success they had, after that sales slowly petered out until they stopped production in 1965.

I think that you're referring to the Studebaker Starliner Coupe made from 1947 through 1951.

I’m voting for the 64 R2 cause Avanti was so different from what Studebaker was doing up until 1962. The Scotsman cars and trucks were as basic and cheap as could be, and really didn’t set sales records. It was the 59 Lark that blew the doors off the South Bend barn! So while the new Lark was creating buzz, their aged truck line was languishing. Based on the success of the 59 Lark there was some money to do a kinda new truck. Voila, the Champ was born - front half Lark, and back half pickup bed. Like the 59 Scotsman, the 60 Champ was just as attention grabbing. But all things considered, the Scotsman looked more like a truck. Kinda interesting that the green truck’s paint is somewhat similar to the Avanti’s. One lucky owner to have two incredible vehicles that look and sound sensational!

Studebaker didn't produce many pickup trucks - probably were losing money on them, which is interesting because the company built many larger trucks for the war effort. Ford and Chevy were in a sales war, International Harvester and Dodge truck sales also suffered.

Hi Timothy Keith, Happy to sharing this Studebaker pickup with you :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou

Thing looks like it was hermetically sealed up in 1960.

59, not 56? It has the big back window, one piece windshield & the 55/56 grille. Dont get me wrong- great truck. I own a Frankenstien 1950 Stude' p/uusing parts from 49 to 58. Great to see. Scotsman means cheap, bargain priced, not an insult but a good deal.

Thanks, Robert. I can assure you that my Scotsman is a 1959, not a reimagined 1956.

Looks like 6:00 - 16s!!
