Don't buy used silverware

[Lightyear]

The Houston area is very popular for overwintering hawks, primarily red tails, this fall I've already had a hawk dive into the rough of the golf course about 100 yards a way and then casually fly over my yard with a fat rat in it's talons.

Last winter I noticed 4 fat doves on the ridge of my roof as backed out one morning, 10 seconds later I realized I forgot something and turned around to get it, as I pulled into my driveway I noticed no doves but thousands of underfeathers roling down my roof - I guess this was the hawk's version of a breakfast buffet

I wouldn't mind having a Studebaker Hawk.

My good man, would that be the Golden or Silver Hawk...?

I wouldn't mind having a Studebaker Hawk.

Guitarist I used to play with had one. That is an incredibly rare beast in this country. Cool car. Of course the most common Ford in this country is the Falcon.

Silver Hawk = Packard V8, Golden Hawk = Packard V8 with blower added, right?

[Dave W]

I believe the Packard engines were only used the first year and that the blower wasn't offered until the smaller Stude engines were used.

One of my uncles had a Golden Hawk with the supercharged Stude engine. It was very fast in its day. I do remember that it was clocked at 131 mph tops on a gravel test road.
