\"StudebakerStudebaker\u2019s Hawk line debuted in 1956 with much fanfare, as the Studebaker-Packard Corporation branded the new model as a \u201cFamily Sports Car.\u201d The Hawk line evolved from Studebaker\u2019s critically acclaimed 1953 Starlight Coupe and Starliner Hardtop and was one of final Studebaker designs penned by Raymond Loewy Associates.<\/p>\n

The Hawk was built in two generations, the 1956-61 Loewy-inspired design and the 1962-64 Brooks Stevens\u2019 restyle. Hawks were built under several different names, including the flagship Golden Hawk and best-selling Silver Hawk, as well as single-year models such as the Sky, Power and Flight Hawk and the Packard-badged Packard Hawk. In 1960-\u201961, it was simply referred to as the \u201cHawk,\u201d and the 1962-64 Gran Turismo Hawk was nicknamed the \u201cGT Hawk.\u201d<\/p>\n

Just over 80,000 Hawks were built during its nine year run, and although never a big seller, the Hawk has become one of Studebaker\u2019s most iconic automobiles and remains tremendously popular today.<\/p>\n
