1957 Studebaker Transtar

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1957 Studebaker Transtar for your consideration. This Transtar came into our facility from a local collector that has maintained and meticulously looked over this vehicle throughout his ownership. Powering this pickup is the 185.6ci Inline 6 option paired to a column shift 3-speed manual transmission. Before the vehicle arrived at our facility it underwent a full tune-up, where brakes were adjusted properly and a new battery was installed. With just a turn of the key, this Studebaker starts right up and runs smoothly and strongly. Drive this one out of our showroom or have us assist with shipping it to you anywhere in the United States! Don't hesitate to give us a call with any questions or for more information.

Transtar was the model name given to the line of pickup trucks produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana, from 1956-1958 and 1960-1963 (although the last vehicles were sold as 1964 models). The name was used on most trucks in the Studebaker E-series, but not all. The Transtar name was first introduced for the 1956 (2E series) model year in 1/2-ton, 3/4-ton, 1-ton, 2-ton, and 2-ton heavy-duty capacities. The three smaller models were available with factory-built pick-up bodies. The basic styling of these trucks dated back to the 1949 models, though they had received some styling and engineering changes in 1954 and 55. The Transtar name continued to be used on most of the 1957-58 3E series trucks, though a stripped-down Studebaker Scotsman model without the Transtar name was introduced in the 1958 model year.
