We’ve seen modified Studebakers before with many sent to the Salt Flats. We all know the look: long, low and smooth.
This Studebaker, originally a 1957 Golden Hawk, was completed in 2019 and features sheet metal grabbed from several other classics: 1960 Pontiac nose section and door skins, 1959 Ford Thunderbird hood, 1963 Chevrolet Corvair rear sheet metal and a 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado right-side headlight door. The Studebaker donated the cowl, windshield and door frames.
Modern hardware includes Wilwood brakes and 20-inch Weld wheels with power coming from a Ford 4.6-liter aluminum V8. In addition to many accolades, the Studebaker has been featured in Forza Horizon 4.
