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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.
