Studebaker Champ

The Studebaker Champ was in production from 1960 until 1964. During that time, the automaker was going through a bad time. It hoped that lightweight pickups would improve the state of things. They made the Champ with existing components, but it was a success. Sadly, minimal changes brought the sales down, so the company was bought out in the end. Fun fact: the Champ was the first vehicle with sliding back windows.

They were only sold from 1967 to ’72, but the “Action Line” pickups from Chevy rank as one of the company’s best-looking trucks ever built. The ’71-’72 Cheyenne, which introduced more car-like features to the still spartan full-size truck range, was the range-topper. The Cheyenne also had special trim on top of the front disc brakes and a standard radio (both new for ’71), a more luxurious interior, and a carpeted, insulated cab. It is worth saving any Action Line truck, but the Cheyenne is still the one to have.
