John- It seems so, & dating back to the early 30's at least, I believe. I have no clue on the "Gold Bullet Nose" behind it ?

1933-Studebaker-Rockne-Delivery
With its stepped cargo body, This 1933 Rockne probably can’t be considered a true sedan delivery despite its passenger car architecture, but it was interesting enough to include anyway. Studebaker’s low-priced Rockne subsidiary, named after Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne, lasted only two years, 1932-1933. Studebaker and the University of Notre Dame are South Bend, Indiana’s two chief claims to fame.

1940 Studebaker Champion Sedan Delivery

Noteworthy:
The Studebaker-Packard Corporation was the entity created in 1954 by the purchase of the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana, by the Packard Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan. While Studebaker was the larger of the two companies, Packard's balance sheet and executive team were stronger than that of the South Bend company.
In the spring of 1962, Studebaker-Packard reverted its name to "Studebaker Corporation"...

1958-Studebaker-Panel-Wagon
This 1958 Studebaker Panel-wagon sports the same plain-Jane painted hubcaps as the popular Studebaker Scotsman passenger car line. The base engine was a venerable 185.6 CID L-head six boasting all of 101 hp.

1960-Studebaker-Sedan-Delivery

Four Lark-based 1960 Studebaker Sedan Deliveries are lined up in front of a local South Bend shopping center for a publicity shot. Though it probably wasn’t reflected in great sales success, Studebaker was a perennial entrant in the delivery market.

Studebaker was an American wagon and automobile manufacturer based in South Bend, Indiana. Founded in 1852, when brothers Henry and Clement Studebaker opened a blacksmith shop in South Bend, Indiana, and incorporated in 1868 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, the firm was originally a producer of wagons, buggies, carriages and harnesses.

In December 1963, Studebaker shuttered its South Bend plant, ending the production of its cars and trucks in America. The company’s Hamilton, Ontario, facilities remained in operation until March 1966, when Studebaker shut its doors for the final time after 114 years in business.

My Grandfather was a Studebaker man. I can barely remember riding with my Grandmother in her faded blue bullet nose 4 door in Deland Fla. and scaired to death of the defroster hoses hanging under the dash. My mother and her sister later confessed painting " the Turtle" on the trunk ,because she drove so slow!

Then riding with Grandad to Daytona beach in his pastel yellow with green roof 55 2 door . Getting a little more stylish now. Then he got one of the new Lark 4 doors , yellow of course. Maybe that's why I liked watching Mr. Ed on TV. It would occasionally flood the carb and he would cuss at it.
In '65 he traded it in on a new Biscayne, white with a turquoise top, 6 cyl. powerglide .

Sleeper, that '33 delivery looks alot like the Dodge humpback panel.
