General info
PLEASE NOTE: The premium for this vehicle is 5% of the hammer price. Studebaker "Golden Falcon," one of the fastest cars on the road in 1958 – 4.7 L small-block V8 with McCulloch supercharger and 202 kW (275 hp) – Three-speed "Flight-O-Matic" automatic transmission – Restored in the USA, U.S. import – Owned by the current owner since 2016 – The automatic transmission was overhauled in 2016. Since then, only approximately 300 km driven – Classic Data rating 2+ – H-registration, next MOT in March 2024 – The Golden Hawk was rarely driven and comes from a classic car collection. It is in excellent overall condition, mostly with original equipment. Henry Studebaker was a farmer of German descent (German: Stutenbäcker, from Solingen), blacksmith, and wagon manufacturer who lived near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, in the early 19th century. Studebaker was already involved in motor vehicles in 1897. From the 1920s to the 1960s, the company produced many stylistic and technical milestones, including the classic Studebaker President. In 1954, it merged with Packard. During this era, the Hawks were built starting in 1956. The Studebaker Golden Hawk was produced from 1956 to 1958 in Scout Bend, Indiana. It is a two-door, pillarless hardtop coupe and was the last Studebaker designed by industrial designer Raymond Loewy. The designer adopted the basic shape from the Champion/Commander Starliner hardtop coupe. The front and rear sections were added or modified. Vertical fiberglass tail fins were initially installed on the rear sides. Packard's engine plant was leased to Curtiss-Wright and later sold, marking the end of Packard production. The Packard V8 engine, introduced just two years earlier, was replaced by the Studebaker 289-cui V8 with a McCulloch supercharger, which delivered the same power as the Packard engine. After only 878 units were sold, the model was discontinued. This vehicle is a classic car, many years old, with some noticeable signs of use and wear. In addition, more or less professional restoration, modification, and paintwork may have been carried out, and a number of cosmetic and technical defects may be present. __________________________________________________ PLEASE NOTE: For this vehicle, the surcharge totals 10% of the hammer price.
