beatles got to get you into my life

Thanks for what you do. I'm 63 years old and thoroughly enjoy watching your shows. Nice to see a younger person with so much passion for historic motor cars.

All three Studebakers are beautiful, balanced designs - I'd take any of them!

This could be considered the "EL Camino" of the 1930s.......simply gorgeous and decades ahead of Chevy and Ford! 🤩

Another great video i am more partial to Studebakers last years but this is a gentlemans truck

Love Studebaker‘s my Dad always bought them his last one was 1957 President I learned how to drive on that car I was 15 I still miss it

another great episode jay, they keep getting better and better

All the Studebaker trucks are fantastic styling 😍👏👏👏 1937 Teraplane would be my second pick 👍 great Episode Happy Motoring ✌️🤠

Beautiful truck, especially the cozy interior.

Before the Ranchero and El Camino. In the early 70's I built a huge Loafing Shed/building for a dairy farm in Washington State and besides the huge timber framed 1880's 3-story barn on the farm, they had a 37' Studebaker Express Coupe still in service. I have been looking for one ever since, but that was the only one I have ever seen in the past 50-years. Hudson had a similar model.

Studebaker had some very unique vehicles and this is certainly one of them. In my dreams several of the minor car builders would still be in business. Thanks for featuring the Coupe Express.

Although the 39 is nice with the 2 piece grill I like the 37 best. the dark green and black

Don't know what happened but I didn't get the last 3 notifications. I reset that and hope it works now. I totally agree with Jay- this truck (or "Ute" as the Aussies call them) is beautiful in every way. The art-deco styling influence shows in the details including the thin bumperettes. The slim curved laid-back grille looks better than upright ones, and I love how the grille bars sweep over the fenders back to the cab with the sharp thin point of the visual hood deck blending right in. The covered sidemount is a nice touch with the baby moon/ beauty ring wheel trim perfect. Even as nice as the 39 looks for it's year, the 37 just outclasses them all. The only downside I can see is that maintaining the distributor points looks like something only a gymnast could do and I'm too old to flex like that anymore. So WYR one is clinched with this 37 Coupe Express. It would have taken the second round but since I already have one from the first choice, I'll have the 48 Hudson Big Boy to go along with it. Choosing which one to drive each day would be tough! The Terraplanes are neat in their own way but a funky in styling though not in a bad way. Like the Aussies I'm a huge fan of Utes for light-duty truck use which is all that most people need and I do wish they'd come back to the US market again.

Learned to drive in a 37 Studebaker pickup, easy driving vehicle.

37 Studebaker coupe express 48 Hudson Big Boy IMO The front grille treatment on all three years are very reminiscent of Ford's designs during the 30s. While all three look nice. I like the 37 the best. As you know Jay from my past comments, I've always been a fan of Studebakers. With my grandfather owning a 28 and also my uncle owning a Hawk. That one's a real beauty and I love that color.

14K for a pickup in 2024? Can you imagine the run on them? They couldn't build them fast enuff! I absolutely love how the pointed grille swoops up into the hoodline... that is so beautifully executed! I would love to see a review of a '37 car. Beautiful lines! The window/vent window design is very interesting. Although it was power, it reminds me of the Lincoln power vent window design from the mid-70's onward. The dash is a thing of simple beauty. But what the hell is that radio??? Never saw anything like that before! This has got to be one of my all time favorite designs from this era... '38/'39, not so much 🙂 WYR: 1) '37!!!! 2) '37 Studebaker!

wyr 1937 wyr 1936 Stude I agree with you ,these are absolutely fantastic. This I would really like to own. Such style they look like they were done by Chip Foose. Thx Jay

It shows Studebaker had been making trucks longer than I thought. My trucks of choice would be the 1939 studebaker and the 1948 Hudson BigBoy

'37 for me. Seen one at Hershey a couple of times and was always wowed.

It is an absolutely beautiful truck, and I would definitely pick this one, and the Studebaker in the second scenario as well! 😎

The 37 is truly a beautiful design, but I favor the 39 because it looks like a Continental.

Ford Australia in 1934 built what was called the coupe utility which was a 1934 ford sedan front cab with the tray moulded into the cab . The cab and tray were 1 piece . This is said to be the first production vehicle of this type . In Australia we just call then utes .

That’s a really beautiful pickup truck Jay! I can’t get over how inexpensive it was and you don’t realize it until adjusted for inflation. Keep up the great job with your videos!

That truck is insanely good looking I would drive that truck up to a castle 🏰 for valet parking with a smile on my face 😊

These Studes and the Hudsons made the nicest looking pickups. Let me know if you think you'll be in Joisey this summer!

First pick 39 Studebaker coupe express and a 40 Willys pickup for its little brother they look similar, second 48 Hudson truck.

Absolutely the 37 !!

I just enjoy hearing that cute daughter of yours. LOL!

37 ! 38 Dash, one of the coolest "trucks" and it and the Terreplane/Hudson rarely get remembered or mentioned. 37 Coupe Express 37 Terreplane oh wow, song way too easy and I was way too slow...

I think I saw a warning in the 1939 Studebaker owner's manual about putting overwattage bulbs in the headlights and/or playing games/chicken with high beaming oncoming traffic or deliberately aiming the headlights improperly and mentioning that authorities of the day were considering further restrictions on the candlepower/wattage allowed for the headlight in view of the public agitation over the aggressive headlight "wars" that were apparently going on at the time -- things come around again -- the current controversy over the blinding new tech headlights and aftermarket conversions to LED lighting that don't conform to legal standards I did try a Sylvania LED backup light bulb but it makes less light than the OEM plain lightbulb ! (I think backup lights should provide some useful illumination for the driver to see where they are going rather than just providing an indication to other drivers that the vehicle is backing/preparing to back)

Gotta get you into my life. The Beatles

What a beautiful truck, and so cheap! Hope you get one, one day, Jay. For WYR, I'd go '37 Studebaker and the Hudson.

im stuck between the 37 and 39 the 37 has more of the 30s look where the 39 has transitioned into more of the 40s look that i really love

But Jay, Ford was the first to the Car-Based Truck market in 1925! They had their One Ton Truck since 1917, but farmers were still buying the regular 5-passenger touring cars, and cutting off the backseat to affix their own beds. Finally, in 1925, Ford introduced the "Roadster Pickup", which rode on the exact same chassis as the regular Model T, making it the first "Car-Based" Pickup Truck. It was basically just a standard Model T Runabout, but with a bed instead of a trunk between the rear fenders! I feel like not enough people know about this historical factoid. 😅

I myself like the 38 and 39 styling better. The 38 Studebaker seems to have round headlights only on the cheaper models. The expensive models have a non-round light, which looks amazing, but I suspect that less light was produced.

This is a really really cool truck I'm so happy I found this awesome channel I love it I've never seen one of these trucks in person

The 1937 (J5) may be the best looking, but the 1938 (K5) and the 1939 (L5) had more leg room in the cab for comfort! Also, that switch under the clutch pedal is not for high beams, it is a Studebaker safety feature, the starter switch which only works when you depress the clutch all the way. Always out of gear when started.

Beatles got to get you into my life

I agree the '37 model was the best looking of the bunch. The '38 isn't bad either. WYR for me would be the '37 in the first one and Studebaker in the second. Overall this is your best video so far. Well done.

Beg to differ. That IS a real truck. If a Ford Ranchero can be a truck, this one can too. Nice resto job on this unit and the gauges look awesome. Too bad they went with white walls, tho. Would love to drive a Dictator, btw. 😎 WYR 1. '39 2. '36 Stude

One of my favorite vehicles, especially the 1937. 1939 is next choice. 1938 wins the interior - IP and steering wheel.

Good Morning Jay! Sign me up too, buddy! I would probably buy TWO at that price! Shows the complete lack of value in modern autos and trucks!! Most companies would want at LEAST 30k for a stripper version!! I am not going to diaagree that this is probably the best looking truck ever! WYR#1 EASILY 1937 Coupe Express! #2 is one that I would like all of them! I admire the Hudson/Terraplane vehicles very much also. We'll go with the Truck with fender skirts! 1934 TERRAPLANE!

My grandpa had a 38 dictator when my dad was born in 39

Jay, the 1939, to me, looks a lot like a Lincoln.

there were srude deisel car carries and asst trucks in. The sixties or seventys Hudson had car pickups. Too

Awesome job! I love all 3 years but would have to pick the 1939

Very nice. Thank you.

Thanks once again jay for sharing another great video, I agree with you on the 37 it is the best looking of the bunch both inside and out. I’ve loved vehicles all my life and truly look forward for your videos. I’m a retired truck driver (teamster) as I said I love vehicles and your channel lets me enjoy a wide variety have you heard of the lemay auto museum in Tacoma Washington ? I think you would enjoy it and it would be well worth the trip for you

Beautiful trucks!!! Beau-ti-ful😁………. Not a nary one, that's a homely pickup. Can't tell you're from, the Midwest (and of British descent, probably). Key words/wording; 'Gander', 'Shoot' (as in, expression), 'Toot-a-loo'. And, speaking of this………. You should of let your daughter, say some toot-a-loo's, in the very near future. One thing; who laughed like 'Muttly Dog' (the cartoon legend), at the very end🤭⁉️

Cool vehicle. That was an unbelievable price. You can't even get a Chinese POC for $13,943 these days unless it's one of those stupid toy things. I'd choose the 1937 Studebaker Coupe Express and the 1934 Terraplane Pickup.

I agree Jay. The 37 is best mate. Cheers from New Zealand

All cars were similar to trucks: front engine, rear wheel drive, high ground clearance, body on frame, engine separate from fenders, fenders hold the head lights, suspension based on leaf springs. The only one difference between cars and trucks is maybe frame, engine strength, otherwise to me all the cars from the brass era untill Hudson brought a unibody car in 1952 are cars based on truck structure. All cars during brass era are horseless carriages as their historic plates says. One can see the heritage of vehicles built from 1920 until 1959 into all commercial trucks in North America especially 18 wheelers and above.

I like Studebaker's. I'll have this truck and a Commander ! Please 😊

If Ford or GM made this, it would be highly collectible.

I like the '37.

Another great video, Jay! And I'll take the '40.

For WYR, it’s both the ‘37 and ‘39 Studebaker, and the Terraplane because of that interesting grille. Have to say, it’s a great so-called truck. Great color. Kind of elegant-looking to be utilitarian. Especially how that grille tapers to the back. Is it safe to say this is sort of an equivalent to ‘59 Chevy El Camino?

Don't need more time as the '37 Studdie stands way out front / 2nd scenario i would take the Terraplane except for the truck bed, so '36 Studdie is my 2nd round winner, let us know when that day arrives J, that you become the caretaker of a '37 Studdie. . . :>/

With a few of the options, you could run the price well over $700 in 1937…😂

Personally I like the '38 better than the other two. Maybe it's those big headlights attached to the top of the fenders.🤔

39 is my favorite

I would rather have that old Studie than any F 150 or Silverado.

Very cool truck. Didn't Hudson make one similar to these also?

39 Studebaker 48 Hudson

"37 Stude pickup is best looking. Stude wins both picks.

'39 was even better looking. Never caered for the '38

Spiral Staircase --I love you more today than yesterday ?

Let your kid do the next toodaloo!!

I'll take all of them!

Wow. It's cheap too. Il have one. 86hp will have to do 😅...

Hello Jay

39 Studebaker ,Hudson

All !

Have I got an interesting car you probably never heard of, but it may be a little new for you!? Have you ever heard of the Tropica EV built by Renaissance Car in 1995; or its successor the Z1 [for Zebra] by Xebra Motors? If you were a fan of the Nash Bridges TV series, Catlyn Cross [the female detective played by Yasmine Bleeth] Drove the powder blue (to match her eyes) Z1 in the 4th and 5th season.

Yikes! Those headlights are so close together! If your going to be driving that thing at night better expect people are going to be pulling out in front of you, thinking your farther away.

WYR: All of them.

Was Ford a year early compared to Dodge and Studebaker at fairing the headlight space inside of the fender? Also two styles of headlight placement on different Ford models of the same year? those headlights I believe had replaceable bulbs inside similar to how most cars are today instead of the "sealed beam" that appeared sometime well before 1950 and persisted at least in most vehicles into the 1980s modern cars' plastic headlights are horrible -- would rather have the sealed beam or at least a proper glass lens

1937 1934 Terraplane

How about the REO SPEED WAGON? Or REO IN GENERAL.

37 and 36

Again, unfair list. I couldn't choose between them.

1939.

I agee ‘37 looks best

really poor choice of name for 1936 car… “The Dictator” (what we’re they thinking?)
