Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / September 2005A little knowledge is a dangerous thing---On Topic
Whoever made that statment is correct in this case: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Studebaker-Studebaker-Golden-Hawk-1956-Studebaker -Golden-Hawk_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6466QQitemZ4572039386QQrdZ1 I hope he is not moving out of the country too soon. I figure it will take prices to reach that level for that type of car in about 12 years. No need to ask or respond...I am sure someone booked it out for him since it is 85% restored. Drive it to Omaha next year and place first in the appropriate C-K class. Bob Miles Tucson AZ Bob, if I could find out where it is in Yuma, I'd at least send Cindy over to look at it. Figure out the time line here. The guy says it is one owner. He says the guy is leaving the country. Hmmmm. Lets say he was very young in '56, like 20? And he bought this Golden Hawk. The one owner thing I'd like to hear more about. And the garish gold paint. KM Kelm, I was looking at the pics and in the background is a big box truck with ABC tire and custom wheels,928-329-1660. Maybe its close to them? Malcom > Bob, if I could find out where it is in Yuma, I'd at least send Cindy > over to look at it. Figure out the time line here. The guy says it is > one owner.

Something not right there. Trunk lid is wrong for the year too, as it should have a flat spot where the lock is. Front end is sitting way to high for a GH. I don't know what it is ....wait a minute with that gold paint job, it IS a golden hawk. <g> Bob Miles Tucson AZ It's kinda, sorta a Golden Hawk. It has the stainless ban over the roof, but the hoods off a 57-61 car? The trims all wrong for a 56, no checks in the rear? I don't know, I give up. But, it sure is fun to watch.

Karl The side chrome reminds me of some of the 55 president, but not as fancy as that. Being a GH without wings, would be power or flight hawk. But the quickest way to tell would be to ask for a picture of the motor(packard motor or not. The body tag numbers or the VIN. Just an observation. Malcom > It's kinda, sorta a Golden Hawk.

Later one looks better anyway IMHO. nate > It's kinda, sorta a Golden Hawk. It has the stainless ban over the roof, > but the hoods off a 57-61 car?

It seems to move from one side to the other when you view it, maybe I need my eyes checked. That paint in conjunction with that red interior.....MAN! >What is that protrusion on the hood, near the windshield. It seems to >move from one side to the other when you view it, maybe I need my eyes >checked. I cannot figure out what it was/is, butt one strange thing, whoever re did the doo panels did follow the 56 Haw lines. It is missing so much and the dash looks wromg Very strange car > Whoever made that statment is correct in this case: > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Bob Miles > Tucson AZ That dash looks strangely reminiscent of the Packard Hawk/hardtop mashup that was in TW a year or so back. I liked that car then and I like this car too. Would like to know how that dash came about. nate |
