Info needed for a 62 Hawk GT

Jul 22, 2009 1 Replies

Hi!



I am contemplating buying a Hawk GT 62, and here is the numbers I could get from the current owner:



Studebaker Serial / VIN #: 62V-15386



V8 Engine S/N: 1554641 , Side of head : 535976 , On Intake Manifold : 1547530 , Transmission : T10-7B or H-4-1



Could somebody tell me if it is a 4-manual transmission, and which kind of V8 is in the car?



Thanks and aloha, Chris


I thought someone would respond by now. The number shown for the engine is a part number. The engine serial number is stamped on a flat machined area on the upper front of the engine near where the radiator hose inlet is. However, all '62 Hawks came with a Studebaker-built 289 cubic inch engine. The engine number should begin with the letter "P". T-10 would be a four-speed manual floor shifted transmission. The best place for information now is on the Studebaker Forum- easy to read, lots of expertise and helpful information. See:
