[)]Finally got to meet Bill Steward when he delivered the '59 4E11 today. Just like most Studebaker truck guys, Bill is just a prince of a fellow. He drove up from the Wichita Falls area with no problems, even though the overdrive was inoperative. Just thought you guys might enjoy seeing the truck with Bill standing alongside just before I drove him back to where he was staying. Actually, I let him drive the 5spd/OD Champ since he'd never driven a 5spd. Every truck guy needs to experience driving a 5spd, right?

Cool deal! The bigger wheels and cutout fenders really make that thing look tough! And well, the pink adds to that, of course.
Must be a Stude truck guy thing; my grandad has worn a cowboy hat for the past few decades now.
Oh, and before StudeGary corrects it, the Transtar name was dropped in '59.
