As promised, here is some more information about the Champ step-side that John found during his travels. As the Studebaker hunt in Texas continues, John saw this wonderful truck next to the freeway at an auto parts store. Swiftly taking the next exit and making a sharp u-turn back down the frontage road, he found what appears to be the find of his trip.
John then went and asked the owner if he could take a few pictures of it. The owner said to him sharply, "Heck, you can buy it if you want to."
As fate would have it, there is no room at the Inn (aka the Smith garage) due to Tracy's midnight Lark purchase, or we might have tried to find a way to get this one back.
Anyway, the owner was very nice and told John that he had put a small block Chevy in it, but the transmission was sitting in the bed. And if I was interested, he would take $5000.00 for it. That pretty much sealed the deal that it wasn't meant to be part of the Smith stable of Studebakers.
If anybody else is interested in this truck, it is located at A-1 Auto Parts,
Sweetwater, Texas. Phone number is 325-235-2420.
