I have a 63 Hawk with an R2 Jet Thrust engine, 4 speed, twin traction and hill holder. Anyone know how many were produced? Somewhere I heard the number as 97. This particular car was one of two at the 63 New York Auto show.

The monograph from the museum states 276 R-2 Hawks for 1963. Production of both R-1 & R-2 Hawks was 645. It also lists 109 Hawks in Velvet Black or 16.9% production. There was an article in Turning Wheels some years ago on R powered Hawks that I seem to remember, in the case of my car, there were 56(?) made with Rose Mist, mine being one of them. I would have to pull up the article to see how many were black and if those figures included R-1 & R-2 cars together.59 Lark wagon, now V-8, H.D. auto!
