I've been a member of Studebaker's Drivers Club for several months and I'm now nearing a purchase of a '56 Power Hawk. I've got a couple of questions for you "experts".
1) What can I expect to pay for the rebuild of a 259 V8 engine? Suggested rebuilders?
2) What can I expect to pay for the rebuild of the stock automatic transmission?
3) Do you have any advice/concerns specific to the '56 model year?
4) Lastly, I would be doing a complete restoration of this car for safety, driveability and my personal taste. I've always liked the tail fins of the '56 Golden Hawk; that being said, if located can these be easily fitted to the Power hawk? Anyone have some tail fins and necessary chrome trim for sale?
Thanks!!
