Coyote V8 Powered Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk Restomod 5.0L V8 5-speed A/C ///

With well over six figures into its ground-up restoration, this 1962 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk is a one-of-a-kind restomod, blending classic styling with modern performance. Unlike typical muscle car builds, this Studebaker stands out as a rare and unique performance machine. Under the hood, a 5.0L Ford Coyote V8 crate engine with a Boss 302 intake delivers high-revving power, paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual for an exhilarating driving experience. A powder-coated chassis, Mustang II front suspension, and 4-link rear with coilovers ensure outstanding handling, while 18-inch Billet Specialties wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires complete the aggressive stance. A dual-exhaust system with electric cutouts provides both a stealthy cruise and a race-ready roar. Wilwood power-assisted brakes with drilled/slotted rotors and red calipers, along with power rack-and-pinion steering, offer precision control. Inside, custom red leather upholstery, a Billet Specialties steering wheel, and Classic Instruments gauges merge vintage charm with modern tech. Comforts like air conditioning and a Bluetooth-enabled Custom Autosound head unit make this a driver's dream. More than just a restomod, this Studebaker is a tribute to innovation, pushing the boundaries of what's possible with a classic platform.
