I received the production order for my driver 61 Hawk on Saturday. PO says destination was Fresno, Calif / Ermine white / Brown interior / 4 speed / Tinted windshield, long gone / PCV, (a Cali thing?) / Power brakes, also gone / Tachometer / Undercoating / 354 axle / Firestone / White sidewalls / Climatizer / Back up lights / Radio, still works / Clock. It appears that the California black plates that came with it are legit. The uppermost sticker, (what's left of it), is yellow, 1988. 1986 and clearly 84 below. So it appears that it spent the first half of its life in Cali. I bought it in Michigan and the previous owner said he bought it from someone in Texas.
I also got the PO for the 53 I am building on Racing Studebakers. It was originally sold in Bronx NY. I also got the PO for the 55 I cut up this spring, it was sold in Montclair, NJ. I bought it in Minnesota, they bought it in Oak Creek , WI which is near me. It is interesting to see how far these cars travel, registered or not.
Later,
