The First Crossover? Studebaker Coupe Express

Over 25 years before Chevy and Ford produced the El Camino and Ranchero respectively, Studebaker created the Coupe Express by combining the front end of a passenger car with the bed of a truck.  The Jalopy Journal has a brief history of the model.  I have seen one or two Coupe Expresses, and they are impressive, not to mention rare, vehicles.
