Basement Find: 1959 Studebaker Scotsman

60K Mile Original: 1963 GMC Series 1002 Pickup
It shames me to admit it, but I’ve never owned a proper pickup truck. Although I’ve long used my ’65 Dodge Dart wagon for similar purposes, it’s not the same as throwing greasy engine parts over the bedside to… more»

9K Original Miles? 1974 Toyota Hilux
This 1974 Toyota Hilux seems like it should be a bigger deal given it supposedly has under 10,000 original miles, but it doesn’t seem to be taking off just yet. These early trucks are humble yet mighty, even if… more»

Never Used 4WD: 1995 Geo Tracker

The 1972-81 Chevrolet LUV was a Japanese-built compact pickup based on the Isuzu Faster. Its name was derived from the lettering for “Light Utility Vehicle.” They were small, simple trucks that sometimes accounted for U.S. sales of 100,000 copies… more»
