"Studebaker Champions For 1940

Shown T0 Public

‘The Swdcbaker Champion for 1940 has made its appearance be- fore local lilOLOIlSlS at the show- rooms at T. G Ives, local Stude- baker dcalci‘, located at 219 Great George street.

‘rho Champion, youngest mem- ber o! the Studebaker line of oars and a. newcomer to the industry lost spring, is a gleaming, stream- lined product from the drawing board of Raymond Loowy and the hands oi Studebaker craftsmen. It is a six-cylinder car, nee from ex- cess weight, lull of the llveliness that characterized its predecessor and the economical operation that made its predecessor famous.

The Champion is produced in three body modeh, coupes, two- door sedans and four-door sedans, all of which are available in either custom or deluxe models.

Studebaker engineers have paid special attention to safety features in the new models. Visibility is ex- cellent, i-liere being B. total o1‘ 2,- 068 square inches of exposed window area. Bodies are, of course, sill steel, the frame is the strong- est of any cnr its weight, the center of gravity is extremely low and powerful hydraulic brakes give positive control at all speeds. The car is equipped with Smndebakerks time-proved independent planar

It was then gnd is now, a. cur designed anew and has. no useless inefficieni weight that characterize “little brothers in big families" cars. Tho Champion weights about 600 pounds less than curs of compar- able price, thus giving its owner; greater livelincss and gasoline Bcmwmy than they can otherwise secure.

The Champion has made two re- markable record runs since its in. troduction -- one B. round mp across the continent and the 09181‘ B- 15.000-mile run at the In- dIflIIB-DOIIS speedway.
