1957 Studebaker Silver Hawk

The 1957 Studebaker Silver Hawk pillared coupe had the same rear fender fins as the Golden Hawk, but different trim and paint scheme.

Silver Hawks were available in all three series for 1957, Champion, Commander and President. The differences were trim and engines. In the Champion and Commander series, Silver Hawks came as both coupes and two door hardtops.

Depending on the series, engines ranged from a six or one of two V8s. Transmissions included a 3 speed manual, 3 speed manual with overdrive, or a Flightomatic automatic.

In the President series they came only as a coupe, with the Golden Hawk being a hardtop.

An engine turned panel went all the way across the dashboard.

This is one of the antique cars and trucks we saw at the 2009 Studebaker Drivers Club National Meet in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
