With a breathtaking name like Hawk you might think that this is quite a glamorous car, and you’re right. The Studebaker Hawk was a two-door personal luxury car launched by American automaker Studebaker. Sadly, Studebaker isn’t around anymore, but it’s likely that your parents or grandparents had heard of it. They may have even owned one, and sung its praises to you. Today, we’ve got a stunning 1960 Studebaker Hawk with some neat performance upgrades making it a real sleeper of a car. This sub-14,000 mile machine currently resides peacefully in Granite Bay, California, and is ripe for the taking if subtle looks and menacing performance are your things.
This 1960 Studebaker Hawk wears a smooth coat of beige paint, and comes replete with signature Sixties details such as whitewall tires, custom painted wheel covers, chrome bumpers, chrome mirrors, and of course, fins. The car also has a set of Aqua Blue neon lights beneath for that street rod vibe at night. Inside, you’ve got a rather refined cabin experience thanks to Dynamat insulation with a full carpet kit. This 1960 Studebaker Hawk features seating for four on blue upholstered bench seats, while an Alpine audio system awaits to serenade everyone with music of their choice. There’s air conditioning as well, which is great in this ever-warming world.
Now for the real deal of this 1960 Studebaker Hawk. It’s got a Studebaker 289ci V8 that’s been stroked and bored out to 341ci, but that’s not all. The engine benefits from custom forged pistons, high speed lightweight rods, a welded, ground and hardened Studebaker crankshaft, a port matched and polished aluminum intake, ported, swirled and polished heads, oversized stainless steel valves, big block competition roller rockers, a special Ground D Elgin cam, R3 exhaust manifold headers, 3 chamber Flowmaster dual exhausts and a custom built Mallory UniLite distributor. Oh, and the engine also gets a boost from a Jacobs Mastermind NOS system. Power goes to the rear wheels via a 700R4 automatic transmission and 9-inch 3.89 rear end with positraction. The car also packs front disc and rear drum brakes.

The 1964 Studebaker Challenger was the entry-level midsize model in the South Bend automaker’s lineup, offering understated styling and dependable mechanicals at an affordable price. Today, it represents a rare sight on American roads, appealing to collectors of orphan brands and enthusiasts of mid-century design. This example, finished in blue over a matching blue interior, has been repainted in its original color and is reported to remain largely original, preserving the authenticity that makes it special.
Studebakers are among the more under-appreciated classics of the 1940s and 50s. With distinctive styling and fewer survivors than their counterparts from the “Big 3”, a classic Studebaker is a very desirable car to own. The Champion was produced from 1939 to 1958 across 5 generations. The 3rd generation (1947-52) was the last full-size Champion (the later models were mid-sized). It was available as either a 2- or 4-door sedan, a 2-door convertible or a 2-door coupe (the station wagon version never made it past the prototype stage) and captured the market well, accounting for over 65% of Studebaker sales in its first year.
One of General Motors’ most successful and popular A-body midsize cars, the Chevy Chevelle ran between 1963 and 1977, across three generations. It was offered in sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible, hardtop and coupe utility forms. Back in the day, it was the default choice for many families who wanted clean, reliable and easy motoring, especially when you choose a station wagon. Now, some of these classics have become restomods, like this 1,242-mile 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Restomod LS3 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This spacious station wagon packs a 6.2-liter LS3 V8, an aftermarket sound system, a reupholstered leather interior and more goodies to make it sweeter on every drive. The car has reportedly been refreshed by Luce Customs.
Nothing beats the experience of cruising around town in a classic first-generation Ford Mustang Convertible. Imagine what buyers must have felt like back then? Ford’s hit pony car was literally flying off the showroom floors. For the first full production year, 1965, Ford sold over half a million! This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible is one of them, and it’s now available to purchase in Jacksonville, Florida. With just under 40,000 miles, this pony packs a nice 302 under the hood, paired with power steering and a front disc brake conversion for better stopping prowess.
The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro represents the pinnacle of first-generation Camaro design, and this example stands out as a true X55-coded Super Sport, not a later badge addition or clone. Factory SS cars are increasingly difficult to find, especially examples that retain their numbers-matching engine, transmission, and rear drivetrain, making this Camaro particularly appealing to collectors seeking authenticity over modification. This car is further distinguished by its inclusion of original documentation, including the Protect-O-Plate, original dealer window sticker, and owner’s manual, all of which reinforce its provenance and long-term collectibility. Extensive professional work has been completed to preserve and refine the car, resulting in a turn-key classic that delivers an experience faithful to how a genuine Super Sport was meant to be enjoyed.
