1959 Studebaker SILVER HAWK Description

Up for sale is my beautiful 1959 Studebaker Silver Hawk. This Hawk was restored approximately 9 years ago, ive years before I bought it. Restoration wasn’t up to my standards so I improved upon it by adding all new chrome, ngine dress-up and mechanical work. It has very small dings in stainless and some scratches also in stainless, one in body. The car has had minimal use on weekends and to car shows. I was told it was a 45,000 mile car, ut ?

The car has never been washed with water since I’ve owned it. I always detail and wax it, sing no water to rust out the joints or to collect to rust other areas. It has never been in the rain.

The paint is great with very few flaws, hips or scratches. All chrome has been redone. Stainless is in good shape with a few dents and scratches. All electric works, ncluding defrost, ipers, ights and horn. Brakes are good for driving, tops good,new power brakes. Steering is manual. It handles nicely on freeway. It’s a little hard to park, ut this is made easier with the suicide knob on steering wheel. All glass is good. Doors shut great.

Engine is 259 cubic inch. Runs great; no smoke, ight compression; tested equal and at what it should be. Car goes along freeway at 60-70 mph with no problems. Handles nice.

Transmission is 3-speed automatic. Works fine; no problems. About $1,000 spent on dressing up engine as shown in pictures.

Pictures sum it up. Really nice interior, ew auto meter gauges, xcept one, ater temp which I have but nosending unit. It does have a gage which matches quite well and does work properly.Has electric tachometer. Windshield cleaner is missing bag, o it doesn’t work. Tires are nearly new. Exhaust is nearly new. Have added new power brake system. New duel master cylinder, ooster, nd over head pedal.

Car is not concourse, ut it is very, ery nice. It gets lots of attention since it is on the rare side of autos. It has won several awards as shown in the picture and I am sure will win more. I have received offers in last add of 15,000.00 and will turn down offers of 16,500 or less. this car is well worth the amount, t would be impossible to build one at this caliber for that sum.Paint & body would cost that amount.

Please ask questions. If you live close, lease come see it. Pictures do not do it justice. Thanks for considering this car. I am building a 1961 Hawk so I can’t keep both. Need money for that project. That was the first year for 4-speed transmission and bucket seats. Approximately $45,000 to build.

$1,000 non-refundable down at auction end. Bank transfer within 10 days. Buyer pays all transportation. I will be here for pickup if notified.
