> That poor old Stude needs some help, Ralph. I rode in one of those pickups
one time, and also about a 1 1/2 ton steak body.  Studebaker wasn't a bad
truck in thier day. At one time I owned a '47 champion that I drove for a
road car.


	Before I went in the service in the early 1950s, I owned a 1940
Studebaker Champion. It wasn't a bad little car to drive but wasn't made
very strong and didn't hold up. It was nimble and quick though and would
run right along. Was driving it the first time I hit rush hour traffic
in Chicago on Lakeshore Drive and it stayed right there with all the
others. I don't know if they still do it that way but in those days, the
Chicago Highway Department could change the barriers on that highway
which changed the number of lanes going each way. It was a pretty slick
way of handling rush hour traffic.
