Studebaker Champ
The Studebaker Champ was in production from 1960 until 1964. During that time, the automaker was going through a bad time. It hoped that lightweight pickups would improve the state of things. They made the Champ with existing components, but it was a success. Sadly, minimal changes brought the sales down, so the company was bought out in the end. Fun fact: the Champ was the first vehicle with sliding back windows.
