This Studebaker Pickup got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1959 Studebaker Pickup Deluxe was purchased new by the seller’s father on October 31st, 1959 at Beaudry Motor Company in Tuscon, Arizona. Finished in Parchment White over a brown cloth interior, the truck was repainted about 30 years ago and was ordered with a Climatizer heater, tinted windshield, and directional signals from the factory. The 289ci V8 is a replacement installed at the time of the repaint, and is backed by a three-speed manual transmission running to a 4.09:1 rear axle. Now showing 67,212 miles, the odometer has rolled over and the truck has been used as a weekend driver since it was passed to the seller about 10 years ago. Service records from the past decade are included in the sale, and the truck is now offered with a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.
