A Lark that wants to be a Hawk when it grows up?....

Found this on ebay - interesting badging and horn button.

Tahiti Coral - right up my alley!

That's what 59's had stock! they didn't get Lark specific 'till 61 (I think)

Apparently 1960 from the replies

Well - you learn something every day! I had seen the Lark specific stuff on ebay and just figured that they were on the cars from the start of production.

I would have thought that since Studebaker was "counting on the Lark to save the company", it would have had its own badging!

My 60 Lark VI came with the lark horn button and all of the 60s that I ever competed against had the Lark horn button.

My Grandpa's 60 hardtop had the lark horn button and grille emblem. (The horn button is now in my '63, which will surely confuse an expert if I forget to replace the '63 button if I ever part with it - which I won't!)
