Sports Car Fun For The Whole Family!

Here's a two-page magazine ad for the 1956 Studebaker Hawks.

That year, there were four versions of the Hawk:  The Golden Hawk, which sported the Packard 352 cubic-inch, 275-horsepower overhead valve V-8 engine; the Sky Hawk used the Studebaker President's 289 cubic-inch, 210-horsepower overhead valve V-8 engine; the Power Hawk used the 259 cubic-inch, 170 horsepower V-8 engine used in the Studebaker Commander; the Flight Hawks used the Studebaker Champion's six-cylinder engine (185.6 cubic inches, 101 horsepower).

For 1957, only the Golden Hawk remained while the other three varieties were merged into the Silver Hawk.
