We’ve seen modified Studebakers before with many sent to the Salt Flats. We all know the look: long, low and smooth.
This Studebaker, originally a 1957 Golden Hawk, was completed in 2019 and features sheet metal grabbed from several other classics: 1960 Pontiac nose section and door skins, 1959 Ford Thunderbird hood, 1963 Chevrolet Corvair rear sheet metal and a 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado right-side headlight door. The Studebaker donated the cowl, windshield and door frames.
Modern hardware includes Wilwood brakes and 20-inch Weld wheels with power coming from a Ford 4.6-liter aluminum V8. In addition to many accolades, the Studebaker has been featured in Forza Horizon 4.
Find this 1957 Studebaker Golden Hawk Custom Roadster up for auction at Mecum.

Um... so what part of the car is still there that makes it a Studebaker, the Windshield and door frames ?
The hood headlight sections from my MINI 's hood were used as part of a build , would that make the build a MINI
