When you think the words "different" and "cool", what comes to
mind? "Cool" is easy for many folks because there aren't many
things cooler than traditional '50s Americana. "Different"? Well,
that's a little more difficult... Unless you pick up a classy and
elegant cruiser like this incredible Studebaker Golden Hawk! Mixing
storied supercharged power with some of the best lines ever penned
by legendary designer Raymond Loewy, this exclusive classic is
different, cool and undeniably collectible!
A fitting follow-up to its Speedster brand halo, Studebaker's
"Family Sports Car" was a line-topping performance offering that
fit right in with muscle car influencers like Bel Air fuelies,
first-year Bonnevilles and Chrysler's epic 300. And, like those
Bonnevilles, Bel Airs and Chrysler letter cars, the Golden Hawk was
essentially a hot rodded version of a familiar commuter. Based on a
two-inch shortened profile of the marque's Commander Starliner
hardtop, the Golden Hawk donned ornate fins, a reworked trunk, a
beefier hood and a reshaped F-86 Sabre-inspired grille. That more
aggressive bonnet hid a supercharged Sweepstakes V8 that's
exclusive to two years of Golden Hawk production. And this
first-year supercharged Golden Hawk would join the ranks as the
best performing Studebaker produced until the 1963 Avanti launched
as the world's fastest production car.

lovingly restored, it's a lot of fun on the street OR at the show.
