Car du jour

[vanillafluffy]

And lest I forget---on the way to 2nd Choice from Melbourne this afternoon, I had a total cargasm at the sight of a delicious Studebaker Silver Hawk.



(Not actual Studebaker seen. Picture displayed for reference only. I just wish I'd HAD a camera---today's Hawk was even prettier.)

What does a car like that have under the hood?

Usually a small-block V8, such as a 259 or 289.

(Dude, you asked.)

[socialhermit.livejournal.com]

Yes, I did.

My parents had a Studebaker Lark when I was a baby. My dad liked weird colors, so the car was pink and black. Unfortunately no photos of it exist, but they loved it and talked about it for years.

Growing up, my best friend's grandparents, who lived across the street from us, had a couple Larks in succession, a black one and a creme colored one. (And her family had a couple of Ramblers....)
