The Packard Hawk is a direct descendant of legendary industrial designer Raymond Loewy’s iconic Studebaker Starliner of 1953. Transformed into the Hawk for 1956 with redesigned frontal and rear styling features, it became Studebaker’s prestige car, produced in several models and equipped with a number of powertrains. After the 1957 assimilation of Packard into the Studebaker model line, the Packard Hawk was readied for 1958 with a unique fiberglass nose section and a supercharged 289-cubic inch V-8 engine with dual exhausts. Capable of reaching 125-mph, the Hawk was the fastest Packard ever produced.
