My Granddad Was a Studebaker Man. Before he passed He was able to find His dream car, a burgundy & black 1929 Studebaker Dictator with forest green colored straight 8 engine. The same year He was born. With twin fender mount spare tires, It had wire wheels vs wood, tan mohair seats & all the window cranks & door handles were in tact. It had a soft top with wooden slats & He later found a steel trunk to mount on the back. He had to unstick the valves & renew the water pump shaft packing that also ran the generator & have the exhaust re made & a crack in its cast iron head welded up "His buddy tried to fix it but warped it all to heck" so then he took it into a specialist who heated it up cherry read in a kiln that straightened it back out & then welded it & very slowly cooled it. They did an amazing job & we couldn't tell if it was ever cracked. When He drove it, I remember the whine of the non synchro cut gears in the gearbox & Him double clutching it up & down the hills in the town of Bellingham were He lived. Another car He had was a very Blue 1939 Studebaker Commander Business coupe, Amazing machines those Studebakers👏👏👏👍✌

Good for you , & God bless you & yours . You may have to let that engine run a while to get the transmission to operate properly , but that's pretty low mileage for it's age .

Back when I was in high school fifty years ago one of our neighbors was a policeman and he loved and collected 1955 & 56 Packard Caribbeans. i remember one of the weak points was the Packard Ultramatic transmission and back in the 1970's spare parts dried up so collectors were adapting GM hydomatics to keep them going. I think even though Studebaker was using the Packard engine in the Golden Hawk they still used the Borg Warner three speed automatic they used in their other cars.

It maybe a 'base' Goldie, but I think that one was a better looker than the other when new. GREAT SCORE!

Beautiful car. Lots of potential
Congratulations on a great find.
Good for you , Jonathan ! Another 56 Studebaker Golden hawk finds an awesome home . I'm sure looking forward to those videos . I'm still grinning over that old marine steam engine you got done up . Pretty slick . This one cleaned up nice , & it's fairly complete too . If anyone can sort it out right & get her running like an American machine , it's you , brother . Good for you , & God bless you & yours . You may have to let that engine run a while to get the transmission to operate properly , but that's pretty low mileage for it's age . I bet it all works fine , once it runs a while . Take care , JW .
Jonathan, BIG CONGRATULATIONS! I know your gonna love getting her onthe road again!
Dad had a 53,I had three Larks with V8s,2 were overdrive,quick cars.Great find!
One of the nicest designs of the 50’s. Well worth restoring.
That's a really nice find. Good for you. It will be nice to see it back on the road. Thanks Jonathan 👍🇺🇸
Johnathan, it just pops once you washed it. What a find. Congratulations.👍🇺🇸🙏🏽✌🏻😎
Very nice! I sure wish I could find one. You are one lucky fellow.
You gotta take the Golden Hawk to Canada to win the challenge!
Fantastic Find JW . I worked at gas stations in the early to mid seventies and American oil still had the card board type oil cans. They certainly aren’t many around. Thanks for sharing the video.
Was pleased to here your shout out to CWM, and just watched there latest video and Scott sure liked the idea of you getting yours going at the same time. Always enjoy how many utubers seem to want to support one another.
Neat car. But is still like my 1956 Power Hawk I just bought. Thank you for saving another one and I loved the video.
Great find to have 2 56 hawks is very special. That transmission will let you star off in 2 or 1 st gear. You have to look at the marks on each side of the D on the selector. Can't wait to see it run. Thank you for saving it.
looking forward to the video on the engine rebuild on this one and your other golden hawk
Congrats on this factory hot rod. CWM brought me here too, but I'm already looking forward to catching up on all your older videos as I love Studebakers
The first resto shop I ever worked at primarily did Packards. They made some good vehicles. Looking forward to seeing more of this all original marvel
Jonathan , Glad to see you so happy over your new Studebaker , She's a Peach !!! A m looking forward to watching you restore Her !!!
Really enjoy your old car videos Jonathan, great stuff!
How exciting! You found another Studebaker, yay... my grandmother always drove Studebakers. One of my favorites was the black and red Hawk she had. She also had a green 1962 convertible. I too am watching The Challenge on Cold War. Anxious to see what he does with both of them. Congratulations on your newest Studebaker, I'll be watching for more! Thanks Jonathan

You got a shout-out from Cold War videos, congratulations. Maybe a collaboration is in the future for you guys?
First car I remember my Dad having was a 1956 Studebaker President. I remember him telling me how fast it was.
Back when I was in high school fifty years ago one of our neighbors was a policeman and he loved and collected 1955 & 56 Packard Caribbeans. i remember one of the weak points was the Packard Ultramatic transmission and back in the 1970's spare parts dried up so collectors were adapting GM hydomatics to keep them going. I think even though Studebaker was using the Packard engine in the Golden Hawk they still used the Borg Warner three speed automatic they used in their other cars.

Too bad that Studebaker didn't use that engine in their trucks.
Congrats on your find!
Nice find! I love coldwarmotors too! i got my drivers lic in 1987 and oil came in cardboard metal cans or plastic.
super video, can't wait until the next. I can hear that 352 in Rhode Island
Great find Studebakers are awesome. The floors really go on them though glad this one isn't bad .
I remember when you found the first one and watching you sew and make new upholstery for the '51 bullet nose. I first started watching when you and Noah got the white Nash sedan running.
Glad to see that such a rare car wound up in such good hands.
You’re a lucky man, finding that car. It’s a Beauty Clark lol.
JONATHAN- THAT car is worth a HELLUVA a lot more than the price paid by far! Front seat is worst thing about that interior, & THAT DASH is gorgeous- no splits, curls, corrosion or missing pieces!! As for the front end paint, I'd bet a combo of CLR & then maybe a Comet wash will bring it back a good lick!! It maybe a 'base' Goldie, but I think that one was a better looker than the other when new. GREAT SCORE!
Brother that is a really solid car from what I can see. I know it isn't usually your thing, but that baby is definitely a candidate for a little body work and some paint. I'd love to watch you do at least a partial restoration on that one. Put the engine back in order, clean up the engine bay, fix a few bad spots and at least get her in primer. Congrats man, nice find.
Great score! Love those studebakers.
Great find. First factory hot rod ever! Awesome! I love it because it is Killer.
That car is absolutely wild! I'm honestly excited to see what you do with this one Jon, that little car deserves to see the road again P.S. also looking forward to seeing what Scott amd the Agents at CWM have up their sleeves for the V8 summer showdown
Nice find! I also used to think they were ugly. Now I really like them.
Not that I dislike the steam engine videos by any means, but it is nice to see a change of pace and see you go back to doing videos like this.
What a great find, one of my favorite cars.
thanks for the videos love how patinent you are about the things you are into!! and finally someone smart enough to start at the top and pressure wash down common sence isnt very common anymore!!1
Such an incredibly cool car. Can't wait to see the finished product.
