57 fins

[KGlowacky]

Someone a while back was looking for some rear fins for their hawk. Don't remember the year but currently on e-bay there is a 57 set for sale. Item #2602399988447. good luck

I think the question is: are they Silver or Golden? I think they are different.

[KGlowacky]

I don't know enough about them to know!

[Bellingham Studenut]

They are different.
Silver are flat acros bottom to the point.
Golden curve and go up to front point.

[fstst56]

Yes, they are different.

However, you can make Golden Hawk fins out of the Silver Hawk's.

Use the G/H stainless as a guide to trace the curve on the Silvers.
Simply trim with metal cutters.

Those don't look like '57 or '58 fins to me.

Looks more like '59 or '60.

To trim S/H fins into G/H fins, you'd need '57 or '58's.

But you can't make golden hawk fins fit a silver hawk, right? Not without some welding?

If those emblems are in their original location, (which I believe they are), then those fins are off a 60 Hawk.

I bumped this to add , there is another set on E-bay that are a little different. I don't know what is Silver or what is Gold. He is selling each side seperate. Item #180352267568. I hope whoever was looking sees this.

[StudHawk60]

Those are off a '59 Silver Hawk. (See how the front of the fin is "chopped" off?) $80 for shipping!?[B)]
