    I have been gleaning information for a couple of years while working on my '60 hawk. Got it about ready for paint. I'm not a body man but have been learning. I'm 81 years old so I had to use my grandson to crawl around under the car. Got most of the bondo, new brake system, upholstery and engine running good. Trunk lid has been a monster but is about whipped. I have had several Studebakers in my life but always dreamed of owning a finned hawk. We was "poor folks" so my champions were 10 or 15 years old. in 1960 I was driving a 1946 champion. Thanx for having helpful info at my disposal, Yogi

          Welcome, Yogi. Studebaker has always been one of the few collector cars we po' folk can afford.
