    Shortbed unibody. That's a neat truck.

    ^^ Looks like it might be a Studebaker Champ.
    Question, if there are any Studebaker truck experts out there: Did Studebaker ever produce a 4x4 Champ?

    Not a Champ, it's a Ford Unibody, by the shape of the rear wheel well. And there were Champ 4X4 trucks, but I wanna say they were not done in-house by Studebaker.

    I'm referring to the truck in post #888, NOT the truck in post #885. You can't even see the rear wheel well on the truck in #888.

    My apologies, I looked at the subsequent three posts and didn't see the Studies. I'll go wash my reading glasses.

    Now that I've looked, I think it's a Cornbinder--the cab lines are too angular.

    I think you are correct. The Champ has odd angles on the windshield post and rear cab post. The posts on this unit are all upright, just like an International cab of the late 50's / early 60's.

    I agree with you Andrew. It's definitely an IH.
