i'll look into that

For the motor in in, 13K is way to much. My advice is to actually look into e-bay. Theres a few AMX and javilins up for bids, and i think a few have 401/390s. However-Almost a Musclecar? Comeon man.

Ive got a monza spider I might sell its a lot of Muscle though you would have to be mature enough to handle it. It a lot of car for its size

I will correct David just a little bit. Studebaker Hawks were not made until 1956. The 1953-55 Lowey Coupes that the Hawks were based on were either Commanders or Champions.

Studebakers are generally undervalued and part of the reason is Studebaker Nuts are notorious cheapskates! They don't like to part with a dollar if they can avoid it. (no offense meant here! I are one of them.) One of the great things about the Studebaker Coupes and Hawks is many of the pieces interchange from 1953 to 1962. A 1953 body will bolt right on to a '62 frame. They are also pretty light, so a little power goes a long ways. You definitely don't see a lot of them at the local show and shine either. Suprisingly there are a lot of parts still available and they are great platforms to adapt modern components to. I have a 1953 Coupe and people just won't believe it is over 50 years old. Too low and sleek! Not a shoe box like others from that era.

As for the size of the Grand Prix, it is similar to the Monte Carlo and Buick Riviera. They have a looong hood but the rest of the car is comparable to a Chevelle.

Happy Hunting!

You're right , sorry , I meant the champion ( I get mixed up with the names)

Try the local auctions, sometimes lucky, e-bay seems to be overpriced for buying something blindly, there also seems to be alot of "fake" auctions going there. Good Luck!

Hooray for Studebakers ! Hooray for Corvairs ! I have both, and they are neat cause not a whole bunch of people have them, and they are reasonable in price....

I am a "Bargain Betty", so I should know....

They're both cool...and unique!

Good Luck!

Good way of putting it Stu. However, I also have to say that AMC People who dont drive an AMX or something like it are also cheapskates. After all, my Eagle only cost 250$ and it drove home. My Fathers AMCs(4 Eagles, 1 Spirit, 1 Concord, 1 Hornet) were all very cheap. Other than the first Eagle @ 3K from the Dealer, all the others were 500$ or less. And yes, they drove home too. So, i have to Say, YAAAY AMCs and All Underappreciated Cars!
