1963 Studebaker Wagonaire 1963 Studebaker Wagonaire

The amazing Studebaker Wagonaire was introduced in 1963. Based on the Lark, it was an amazing mix of a wagon, truck, and convertible. It was a station wagon with a rear sliding roof panel so that you could fit tall objects inside when they would normally stick out from the roof. You could also flip out some rear-facing stowaway seats in the back and open the sliding panel so the rear passengers would enjoy the fresh air of a convertible. But bad things can happen to good ideas, and it was soon discovered that the incredible sliding roof was unfortunately prone to water leaks. Without enough funds to retool for a new, improved model, Stude was forced to limp along until its final day with a leak-prone Wagonaire.
