Hello,
Last week I was skimming through eBay for Jeeps (I'm a Jeep guy through and through) and found myself obsessing over a 1962 Studebaker Champ with a short box. It was one of those feelings where I wondered where this truck has been all my life. The lines, the simplicity, the iconic branding, the history, and that one of a kind unmistakable look drew me in. Jeeps are my passion for the reasons just stated and looking further into all things Studebaker a whole new world of possibilities has opened up to me. Why it has taken this long to catch and peak my interest I can not say but I envision a torrent of research consuming my discretionary Jeep time and money. For the last 5 days I have been convincing myself I must buy a Champ and restore it.
This post, by and large, is to introduce myself and draw from this club's vast knowledge and expertise. I am an open book at this point, like a sponge soaking up Studebaker guidance.
Last, I have merely dipped my toe in the Studebaker pool, but I am quite sure I am on the prowl for a 60s (any year) Champ short bed. Feel free to contact me with options, opinions, and insight.
