What's wrong with this GH?

	There's seems like alot amiss here. I'm definitely not an expert, but I think that's a 58 grille. The body tag looks okay, but what's up with the VIN number? Shouldn't that start with a 57 intead of a 61? Still learning.... <http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4542824141&category=6466> Mark 65 Cruiser

	Golden Hawk serial numbers were not 'date coded' 61000 series does not have anything to do with the year. It does have a 58 grill badge, but that'll only cost you $50 to replace with correct one.

I don't think they started putting the year in the SN until a couple years later. nate

	it does look a bit salty underneath, & has just the type of underbody corrosion which accompanies copious amounts of body filler in those rust-prone areas.

	Went back and read most of his feedback. Kinda poor track record, the most used description in the negative feedbacks " Overstated car's condition". A comedian couldn't write stuff like this.

	Seems to me to have a lot of issues, and some of the photos start to ask more questions. One body mount looks shot, there is rust under the car, some expected some not. The VIN plate looks as if someody was trying to pry off the tag, possibly to put a new one on. What most folks don't know is that you can use ACC and place the replacement or 2nd tag over the original and you would never know it was there......... illeagel but looks good. Other things that bothe me is the nose is too high, but that might be due to spring replacement, the runst shown by the right fin down low could be a major fix. The major glaring error is that the side grilles should have those dummy chrome strips in them. However, even at $15000 the car is a bargin unless there are hidden problems BG

	I could be wrong but I may have seen this car in northern Quebec a few years ago - around Noranda. It had a similar interior and the same '58 medallion. But its exterior colour was the GH metallic gold and white, not this 'kinda gold' and white. It may have been repainted though. I never saw the underside at the time. I was told by an agent for the owners that it was originally owned by the Studebaker dealer in Noranda and was passed down to his nephew who restored it. They were asking $20,000 Canadian at the time. I offered her $12,000 upon closer inspection, but was turned down. A year later I asked about it again and was told it had been sold to someone in the States for $12,000. Go figure. Now, I can't honestly say it is the same car, but it does look eerily close.

	According to the title, it looks like it spent most of it's life in Ohio.
