4580-TPA 1962 Studebaker Hawk Gran Turismo This beautiful 1962 Studebaker Hawk Gran Turismo is a true study in contrasts. That elegant, polished union of Americana and European design flair, while the hot-rodded V8 and four-speed gearbox hint at a thrilling side. Highlighted by a Mercedes-inspired grille and Halibrand-style mag wheels measuring 15 inches wrapped in 225/70R15 redline tires, its exterior stands as a tribute to an era when elegance met the raw pulse of muscle car ethos. Notably, the car doesn't wear any stripes, maintaining a sleek, uninterrupted flow from its rounded front to its tapering tail, which all but whispers tales of a storied past on the boulevard. Inside, a blue vinyl theme dominates, from the bucket seats to the dashboard, offering a crisp, clean aesthetic that contrasts sharply with the black dash. Chrome accents around the gauges catch the light, reflecting a meticulous attention to detail. A working AM radio, central console with storage, and floor-shifted 4-speed manual gearbox are ready to enhance any drive. The entire cabin holds its vintage charm immaculately, ensuring every element is aligned for a comfortable journey, complemented by the subtle practicality of a cream-colored headliner and matching sunvisors that show only a hint of gentle use. Beneath its poised exterior lies a brawny 289 V8 engine, topped with dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors that suggest this Hawk doesn't just cruise-it soars. Mated to a robust 4-speed manual transmission, the setup is perfect for those who admire the hands-on engagement of driving. Front A-arm suspension with coil springs and rear leaf springs handle the undulations of the road with ease, while the drum brakes at each corner bring this elegant behemoth to a stop with unpretentious efficiency. Dual exhausts affirm the car's performance capability, emitting a sound that is as delightful to the enthusiast's ear as the car's appearance is to their eyes.
