Brandon at American Torque has become quite a Studebaker enthusiast, as Bob Palma can attest. Though his web site must appeal to the great expanse of American production, he always seems to manage some Studebaker content. He has just posted a new quiz that challenges your knowledge of American pick-up trucks.

Only 86%
The ones I got wrong were the years. The older guys like Bob have a distinct advantage here - they drove these when they were younger.

While you're on the American Torque site, check out the Members Cars tab. You can look by decade or by make and many of our own Studebakers are there. If you click on any picture it will bring up additional photos of that vehicle.
Brandon's a good guy and I encourage you to examine his page.

I think the Author Brandon messed up on that '59 Studebaker Deluxe 4X4 he called a 1960, it was the only year that would not be COMPLETELY wrong, so I went with it.
Or was this some kind of Oddball Truck assembled in Argentina in '60 or something?
It does have the '59 and '60 to '64 Big Truck Parking Lights, so it is not a '57-'58.Last edited by StudeRich; 02-21-2016, 12:06 PM.StudeRich

86%. Guess it helps to be 69 years old. I think I saw all those driving around when I was a youngster (except maybe the Mercury).Rick
