    1962 GT Hawk - "Daisy-Mae" - she came dressed to kill in etherial green with a charming turquoise inside. I'm hopelessly in love!

      Pretty darn nice car. Glad you enjoy it as much as you do. Pictures of other nice Studes, keep me motivated on my build. Thanks.

            Good looking car Jake! Always thought that the '62 black factory A/C evaporators looked much better in a GT hawk than the later silver/grey ones.

            One thing I noted in your engine compartment pic Jake........sparkplug wires #5 and #7 are running together (parallel) -- since they fire next to each other in the firing order, this routing can induce a miss-fire. Route the #5 wire with #1 wire, and #3 wire with #7 wire. It will prevent a potential misfire. Attached is a pic of how you can route the wires - not the best pic but best that could be found on short notice.

                Jake, Thanks for posting the pics. Great car as I'm sure you are very proud of it.
                Nice shot of the dog . X2 and looks like you clean up pretty good too!

                Surely someone on this forum must have a full instrument dash for you!!

                      The Hawk does indeed look great. What does that color of paint come from? It looks similar to what I painted my '65Cruiser. I couldn't get the original green color and found a GM color that looks much like what you have. I like it on my Cruiser and on your Hawk as well.

                        That Cruiser sounds great! I would appreciate you PMing me some photos. Anyway, the paint is, to the best of my knowledge, Metallic Green Poly P-6213 mixed with other hues to create a totally unique shade of green. I adore it!

                          You did not acknowledge R1Lark's comment on the plug wires.
                          This is very important!

                            Apologies. I'll be certain to address it right away.

                              Beautiful GT. Take good care of it. Drive it often, but keep the rubber side down!

                              What ratio is the rear end gear?
