Studebaker's answer to the muscle car. Records show that only 4,634
Gran Turismo Hawks were built in 1963 and very few of those
equipped with the 4-Speed Manual Transmission, even fewer came with
the blown R-2 engine which this fine example has under the hood.
The GT Hawk achieved certified Milestone Car status long ago. It's
a rare, all-American Classic of the most desirable kind. Fifty-plus
years later, there's but a handful of excellent, surviving GT Hawks
left in the Country. Due to an incredible set of fortunate
circumstances, this particular car has not only survived in
excellent condition, it also runs and drives every bit as strong as
its creators intended and is ready for relaxed long-distance
cruising.Originally designed and built to compare with the high-end
European sports car market of that time, with art deco styling,
fighter jet cockpit instrumentation, and European design cues. This
Hawk GT still retains its beautiful original Green Mist Metallic
color, with a beautiful Light Green and Cream interior. It runs and
drives excellent. Original, Desirable and Usable in modern traffic,
this classic Studebaker Hawk GT is smooth and powerful, and a
pleasure to drive.This Hawk GT's body is as good as you'll ever
find. The Green Mist Metallic paint is the original color and
displays an irreplaceable patina befitting a fine antique. Here is
your chance to secure one of the very few remaining certified
American Milestone cars of the late Fifties/early Sixties period
not yet tucked away in some aficionado's private collection.For
