Details: STK 2159 1959 Studebaker Silver Hawk The Studebaker Silver Hawk was produced between 1957 and 1959. It was plainer in appearance than the Golden Hawkand#44; the senior of the two Hawk models. There was less chromeand#44; no supercharger and a simpler paint scheme. The Silver Hawk was based on the earlier Starlightand#44; a similar pillared-coupe model. By 1958and#44; in the midst of a financial crisis at Studebakerand#44; the Golden Hawk was dropped and the Silver Hawk became the only Hawk model in production. Studebaker sold 7and#44;788 Silver Hawks in 1959. This partially restored Silver Hawk is basically a survivor. It has had a recent repaint (2012)and#44; but the blue vinyl interior appears to be original right down to the turned metal dash. The factory AM radio is thereand#44; but needs a little love. New seat belts have been added for safety. In 1959and#44; buyers could choose the 170ci six or the 259ci V8. This Silver Hawk has the V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor that produces 195HP. The current owner does not believe that the engine has ever been rebuilt. A 3-speed automatic transmission transfers power to 3.31:1 rear gears. Brakes are drum (11f - 10r) with a hydraulic system that has been converted to a dual master cylinder. The current owner is including additional parts and new rubber weather stripping. This is a solidand#44; very original Studebaker. Call 800-650-1055 or visit www.autobarnclassiccars.com for additional information. ALL VEHICLES SOLD AS IS.
