Ed Luddy Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Ordered with all the right stuff for sure! Nice Nice! My last 2 GT Hawk's were 63's. Virtually same car except the trunk lid. They were very hard to sell and finally ended up losing money on both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may very well get bid up to extravagant numbers. Very clean car with those options are hard to find. It's just that Studebaker buyers are notoriously cheap and more of them are dying off on a daily basis. As a multi Stude owner and follower for over 50 years I've seen the interest really taper off in the last few years. Lowball offers are the main menu when trying to sell. My former Hawks shown below both in the $8000 Canadian range a few years ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 The way this car is configured. It may push the price up. It is practically the king of the hill. Minus the color. The problem is if you get high enough, you’re in Avanti territory. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with all the dust around here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Luddy Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 White hides the bad bodywork better. Ask me how I know that!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAKerry Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Another one of those cars I have always loved! I favor white cars so this one is just about perfect, black would def. be menacing though!! (and harder to keep clean-ask me how I know, LOL). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 A set of the Halibrand mag wheels would complete this '64 nicely, with black-walls, of course... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrudy Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Very fresh-looking car. I will be watching this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 The more time one spends looking at this car the better it looks. There aren't many things that make me wish I was younger but this is one of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
