Vehicle Description
1962 Studebaker GT Hawk

The Studebaker Manufacturing Company was introduced in 1852 at which time they were a coachbuilder manufacturing wagons and carriages. They entered the automotive business in 1902 and gained a reputation for quality, durability, and reliability. They are often pointed at for their "ahead of their time" advancements as they were creative and incorporated features that wouldn't be seen in other makes for years to come. The Golden Hawk was a model released in 1956 as a pillarless hardtop personal luxury car. They were similar to the Champion/Commander but added a more vertical eggcrate grill and slight tailfins in addition to other modifications. Sales were hit by late 50's recessions so they ultimately were discontinued until being revived in 1962 with the Gran Turismo Hawk which would go on to become the final Hawk series. This 1962 is one of those GT Hawks and was the top of the line Studebaker available at the time. It is painted in a Riviera Blue and it wears all of its original chrome and stainless trim. The glass is all in good condition with no cracks or damage. The car rides on a set of old school Progressive wheels with thin white wall tires.

The engine option for this year was Studebaker's 289ci 4.7L V8 motor. Everything on the car is very stock and it runs well. It is paired with an automatic transmission and shifts smoothly. These engines were known for their lower compression which traded power output for a much longer engine life.

The interior upholstery is done in multiple shades of Blue and is in good shape. It has dual bucket seats with lap belts which sit to each side of the original console and an added aftermarket console which provides cupholders and storage. It has a nice bench seat in rear with a folding center arm rest. The dash is all done in Black and is topped off with a Black dash pad, original style trim including the wood grain trim and the stock knobs/switches/radio/gauges/etc.

These are neat cars and you just really don't see many of these around anymore. They are known as Orphan cars due to Studebaker stopping production in the late 60's. There are tons of Studebaker clubs out there so you will have no problem finding friends to hang out with in your Gran Turismo Hawk!

This unique classic could be yours for $20,500.00!
