The Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk was a short-lived Grand Tourer (as you may glean from the name) that lasted for just the 1962, 1963, and 1964 model years. Around 15,000 are estimated to have been made, including some modest export sales. That's why you'll struggle to find examples such as this 1964 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk. A definite future classic that will only appreciate in value, this car has a rebuilt motor with just 5,000 miles on it. Hence, it can be considered a fine classic to own, with a significant rareness factor and a tendency to only appreciate in value as time goes by - as long as you maintain it, of course. This is one of those rare classics that your heart, head, and accountant will be in agreement over.
Showing 76,087 miles, this 1960 Studebaker Lark VIII Convertible is an example of Studebaker’s distinctive compact V8 platform, combining classic styling with the performance-oriented Lark VIII drivetrain. Finished in red with a red/black interior and tan convertible soft top, this open-air cruiser is powered by a 259ci V8 paired with a 3-speed Flight-O-Matic automatic transmission, offering a unique alternative to the more common offerings from Detroit’s Big Three.
The postwar pickup market was fiercely competitive, but Studebaker managed to stand apart with distinctive styling, solid engineering, and a reputation for durability. This 1950 Studebaker 2R5 Pickup represents that era well, combining classic American truck design with practical utility. Showing approximately 10,070 miles on the odometer, this truck benefits from a reupholstered interior and retains many of its period-correct details, making it an appealing choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Its charming appearance, all-steel bed floor, and iconic Studebaker character make it equally suitable for local shows, weekend cruises, or display in a vintage vehicle collection.
Studebaker is one of those legendary American automakers that’s long gone but never forgotten. Our automotive history is full of brands that gave us iconic machines—cars that still stir emotion decades later in a way modern tech-focused brands may never match. Today’s vehicles are fast and advanced, but will they inspire the same connection fifty years from now? Will they even survive that long? Classic cars were built with longevity, soul, and mechanical simplicity, not planned obsolescence. That’s why a seventy-two-year-old build like this 1953 Studebaker Commander Pro Street build still exists—and still turns heads. Based out of Hiawatha, Iowa, this restomod has been transformed into a true street-strip performer, featuring a massive LS6 V8 with the current owner reporting just under 700 miles since completion. It’s a striking custom that’s ready for its next run.
