The Gran Turismo Hawk was the top of the line Studebaker, and this one shows why that is.
V8 power, A/C, power steering, power brakes, Sports Roof half vinyl top, spoke wheels, and white wall tires make this car a great looker, and comfortable to drive.
Only 1,484 were built, making this a rare collectible that will surely stand out at car shows! This Stude has been owned by the same woman since 1998 and has been garage kept and lovingly cared for.
It shows with how clean this car is throughout! The 289 CID V8 engine is peppy and fun and is backed by a 3-speed automatic transmission.
Some more info on this vehicle from Wikipedia:
For the 1964 model year, the GT saw some extensive design changes.
Tooling money was finally appropriated to eliminate the grooved trunk lid that had required the 1962-63 Hawks' faux rear grille.
The new, smooth trunk lid bore a script Studebaker Hawk nameplate.
Another grille change was made, this time with two new features:
A Hawk emblem was centered in the grille, and a circle-S hood ornament (shared with the regular '64 Studebaker passenger cars) graced the top of the grille shell.
Perhaps the most interesting and notable exterior change involved the top of the car.
Stevens, who had envisioned a half-vinyl-covered roof as part of the original Gran Turismo design, finally got his way with the '64 model.
The new Sport Roof was made available in two colors (white or black) at a cost of $65.
New wheel covers, shared with the rest of Studebaker's 1964 passenger-car line, were also added, along with painted dots on the headliner vinyl (replacing holes used in 1962-63), new silver-threaded cloth upholstery, larger upper-instrument-panel pad and a new lower-instrument-panel pad, and horizontal pleats on the side upholstery panels (replacing vertical ones).
And, for the first time, Hawk buyers could order an AM-FM radio as a factory-installed option.
When Studebaker closed its South Bend, Indiana plant in December 1963, the GT Hawk was among the models discontinued by the company, which consolidated all production in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, where manufacture of the Lark lasted only two more years, using Chevrolet-based engines.
Don't miss your chance to own this rare, well-optioned, super clean 64 Studebaker GT Hawk! It won't last long! This vehicle is available to view by appointment only.
