FREE PARTS CAR!
Hi, I have a ’62 GT Hawk that I got from Jim Weir some years back as a parts car and have no use for it any longer. No title and not registered since ’73. It is about 85% complete. Car has white paint over original green metallic. Missing: headlight rims, aluminum rocker trim, fr and rr bumpers, inner door panels, some fender top stainless, grill, water pump, distributor and radiator. The fenders and doors are arrow straight but they have typical repairable rust in the corners. Rear fenders are perfect and rust free. Hood is trashed and the trunk lid has rust at the bottom edge. Passenger compartment floor has surface rust but no rust through. Seats are there but upholstery is bad. Frame appears good but I have not done a close inspection. Glass is all there and pretty good. It has a 289 with 2 bbl carb, dual exhausts, Flight o Matic, power steering. My bride says it has to go soon or she does. Sale price is FREE. It is too good to go to the crusher. It would have to be trailered because the tires are pretty bad. If someone wants to dolly tow, I can lend them a set of wheels with good tires to get it home. I do want the loner wheels back. Lew Goen, 760-489-6972 (home) or 619-226-5313 (work, until 2 PM).

Restored 1962 GT Hawk For Sale in Sonoma County
1956 Studebaker Parkview Wagon For Sale
Hello, my name is Ron Flenner. I am a member of the SDC from Eureka, Ca. I purchased a 1956 Studebaker 2-Door Parkview wagon last 11/2015 it had 73,000 original miles and is in very good condition. Since the purchase I have had the gas tank, fuel lines, and fuel pump repaired. In addition, I have had a new rebuilt starter, water pump, 4-barrel carb plug wires and a total tune up done to the car. The brakes have been inspected and a new master cylinder added along with a new dual muffler system for safety purposes. The tires and other running gear are fine. The car does need a new interior, seats and headliner or a set of good quality seat covers. In all honesty, there are some rust issues, but, the vehicle was garaged in Tracy, CA in the past and is really in good shape. I am interested in selling the Parkview for $ 12,500 or OBO. In addition, I may consider a trade for another Studebaker of similar value. (The vehicle has the 259 ci-v-8-3 speed column shift-4-barrel-and dual exhausts) I can be contacted by cell-707-362-1916 or by e/mail: rflenner@

Cool Classic Car Show 2017

There was a wonderful array of cars, from pre-war Studebakers and Pierce Arrows to a 2007 Avanti! Joanna Worster did her usual great job of photographing the cars, and they are all now loaded into a new picture gallery in the “Pix” tab of our website. Just click on the picture of the 2007 Avanti at the upper left of that page to view the whole album.
