STUDEBAKER GOLDEN HAWK

Now THERE was a car. Several engine options R1 through R5 as I recall,
from hot to WOW! Even the R1 was a quick little car in its day. As I recall
there was nothing that could keep up with the R-5 version. Rare as hen's
teeth. I think you had to know somebody to even get one.

with a 1956 T Bird. Wish I still had it. Let it go for $1700 on a trade
in on a 1967 Bronco.
