Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / August 2005Good Studebaker Day
Got allot of metal work done and will be priming tomorrow. All the major sheet metal is done except for the main body and I hope it will be done shortly. I even got the grass cut. . .Hurricane what hurricane? Rick (dodging another one) Courtier Great! We have a Sky Hawk too, propably in aboout the same shape as yours. But ours came from the Dr. Robert Cade collection.... Matthew (how many other people can claim that?) Burnette > Got allot of metal work done and will be priming tomorrow.

Burnette I don't know about that...But it is something few peole can say. You do know who Dr. Cade is don't you? He invented Gatorade, and has a NICE Studebaker collection. They are to be building a museum too. Matthew (I know where I'd like to go after I graduate...) Burnette > Is that supposed to increase the value? > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > yours.

I just never heard anyone talking about owning one of his old cars like it was something special. Lee >I don't know about that...But it is something few peole can say.

This is the car that the German exchange student wrecked. The Cade's fixed it, and sold it to us about ten years ago. Now it really just needs some body work and paint. The interior is still in great shape. http://community.webshots.com/photo/398232923/398366896dtrNxP# Well, if you wanna see, it's there. We have a better hood to go on it... > Yes I, and probably everyone else here, know who Dr. Cade is.

I just doing a total restore and it will be done by Omaha! Come hell or high water. . . Sorry, New Orleans! Rick > Great! We have a Sky Hawk too, propably in aboout the same shape as > yours.

But if I ever inherit it, it wil be the color as yours! I think that the Sky Hawk was among the top 5 best looking Studes ever, and that is my number 1 choise of color for them. I wanna see it when ya get through... Matthew (at least e-mail me pics) Burnette > Romany Red and Snowcap White > Same as my Transtar.

Every time I see Sky Hawk mentioned I feel worse about selling the one I had in the mid-80s. It was rust-free, straight (undamaged) body, three speed overdrive, original gold (single color) paint with a so-so black and white interior. It was cobbled up mechanically and I had a man wanting it to restore like his '56 Golden that he had owned years ago, so... I do agree that they are one of the best looking Studebakers. I'm not interested in finned Hawks or '62s/'63s, but I love the '64s too. Paul Johnson My Sky Hawk has been in the restoration shop for the last 18 months and will soon move into the paint booth (I hope). It will also be Romany Red on bottom and Snowcap White on top. Mine was straight to begin with and was completely dry. The hood had at one time, wrapped up over the roof and had a marginal repair at best. I did have to locate a new hood. Don C. > > ...
