  • Airborne Hawk?

    Based on the seller's description, this may be the first airborne Studebaker Hawk. He states it has the optional high altitude "Sweepstakes 289 Jet-Stream Supercharged v8". Wonder if it needs AV fuel to run? [}][}]

    It has new battery cables, no hold down [xx(] and it looks like the front floors have been completely replaced with flat metal.

    [)]Question crossed my mind as to why the car would have been "totally disassembled" and put back together with rusty front fenders?[)]

        I rode in an airborne Sky Hawk once. Don't want to do it again. It landed on the roof. Not much support there. NT

                Uh oh. Somebody put the back window in before putting the stainless trim in the seal first.[:0] Why would they put all the trim back on before painting the car? Don't even get me started on the rusty fenders.
