[bruin]

I got a call today from the stude. muesum that they cannot send me a production sheet for my hawk. they can only go back to 1960 on canadian cars.

Bummer! I thought they had all those records.[V]

1963 Cruiser
1960 Larkvertible V8

I thought Art Unger or someone who worked at the Hamilton Plant had them?

Studerich, I have statistical data for 1963 through 1966
Hamilton production. I do not have production build tickets.

OK, Art that is good to know, I knew you had some info, just not what.

[Roscomacaw]

Art's "info" is really very, extremely limited. Trust me. Of course, I like him anyway.[^]

I could not get the build sheet for my '65 Cruiser. I was told it was evidently lost.

Years back one one of my trips to South Bend I took in 8 different cars I wanted to get production orders and got all except for my 1957 silver hawk made in Canada, they just said we don't have all or many from the cars made in Canada, thats to bad because it is a nice item to have with the cars ....Bob Peterson

It's my understanding they do not have any Canadian production records from the end of the war to 1960. They were apparently lost when the Hamilton plant was closed. That's a bummer, because I would like one for my 54 Commander K. There were only 145 made in Canada.

I was hoping a sheet would tell me why I have a 17inch J wheel in my flighthawk, I thought they were only in the goldenhawks.

That's simple, the standard wheel on Flight Hawk/Power Hawk was the Standard Wheel with the horn button.

The OPTIONAL Wheel was the Deluxe Wheel with the Horn RING!

Ditto the bare dash/Padded Dash.
