1956 STUDEBAKER
TRUCK
|
 |
This is the modified E45
Diesel by Studebaker. The size of the tractor has been reduced from 102 inches
to 96 inches from bumper to the back of the cab. Studebaker now provides a
truck tractor in combination with a 40-foot trailer that seats the legal
requirements in states having a 50-foot overall size limitation. The E45
two-ton Diesel is rated at 19,000 through 23,000 pounds gross vehicle weight,
and 35,000 through 41,000 pounds gross combination weight. A Series 52
four-cylinder, two-cycle engines powers the E45. |

Two-ton truck, top weight
model in Studebaker's Transtar line, goes through pre-introduction testing at
the South Bend proving ground. Advances on the heavier duty units include a 10
per cent increase in frame strength, elimination of fish plating to simplify
body installation, 38 per cent increase in combined rear spring capacity to
6600 pounds: brake boosters as standard equipment which are the industry's
largest (9-1/2 inch diameter) for this type truck: and electric shift with a
two-speed dual purpose axle. Wheelbases available are 131, 155, and 171 inches.
A 259.6-cubic inch V8 engine of 156-horsepower will be standard, with a cab and
factory-installed nine-foot through 14-foot stake and platform bodies, which
have the greatest inside width in the industry. Other new developments
throughout the line, which starts with half-ton models, are a 12-volt
electrical system, ignition key starter, oil bath air cleaners, and new,
bigger, more massive appearance. |
