Thanks for the pictures. Except for the 1950 Land Cruiser and the Avantis, it looks like all of the Studebakers are modified. I guess it is a southern California thing.Gary L.

Gary, the '63 GT Hawk is bone stock and very nice! We welcome totally correct restorations as well as modified cars in our chapter (as long as they are Studebakers).Howard - Los Angeles chapter SDC

1) '64 circle S hood ornament,
2) '63 grille emblem mis-placed,
3) red wheels,
4) no chevron on the door (that I can see).
I do not have a problem with modified cars, I have owned several. I was just commenting on those pictured.Gary L.

It's just a Nice owner modified Hawk, NOT a 100% correct Original.
The 1950 Land Cruiser (Dan Skidmore's?) is THE Most correct original and the '60 Hawk (Stan Haverland's?) is probably perfect except Wheels.

Rich, that IS Dan Skidmore's '50 Land Cruiser and it still looks and runs great. Also, that is Stan Haveriland's Hawk, but don't let the looks fool you; it is Chevy powered.Howard - Los Angeles chapter SDC
