1957

Is this the missing last generation? File:STUDEBAKER CHAMPION.jpg? --TheK (talk) 04:59, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Eh, forget it; found an (unfree) images, which looks totally different. --TheK (talk) 05:08, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

I have a 1949 champion and would like to know the value of it.. going to sell it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.194.105.108 (talk) 18:48, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

typo on engine power

"Two engines were available, a 185 cu in (3.0 L) 1,012 hp (755 kW; 1,026 PS) "Sweepstakes" L-head I6, or a 289 cu in (4.7 L)210 hp (157 kW; 213 PS) "Sweepstakes" OHV V8."

I'm guessing that 185 cid engine produced 101, 102, or 112 hp, and 1012 hp is a typo. Just thought I'd draw it to the attention of the editor. Zzrbiker (talk) 04:26, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Inspired by the P-38 aircraft?

According to the wiki article on the P-38 aircraft, "The P-38 was also the inspiration for Raymond Loewy and his design team at Studebaker for the 1950 and 1951 model-year Studebakers.^[118]" , along with a picture of a 1950 Studebaker Champion which links to this article, yet I don't see any info on it in this article. The P-38 is never even mentioned here, or anywhere in the main Studebaker article. --moeburn (talk) 08:53, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Ford X-100

Just saw some footage of the X-100. The grill looks somewhat like the Champion's of the same time. 108.173.92.65 (talk) 23:33, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

I made the edit for 1953. Here is a picture of the alternate 2-door sedan. I do not have a picture I can post. It is very important to show there are 2 different types of 2-door sedans. People buy the wrong parts all the time and the values are different.Hotspur (talk) 00:05, 29 March 2017 (UTC) https://assets.hemmings.com/story_image/131309-500-0@2x.jpg?rev=1
