1962 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk. Powered by a 289 CI 4 barrel engine and an automatic transmission. This Studebaker began it's life in California, in the Los Angeles area, and spent 28 years there, in 1990 it was driven to Missouri. Shortly after arriving in Missouri the car was sold and the new owner wanted to do a restoration. The transmission and rear end were rebuilt prior to leaving California so the new owner started with the engine, having it professionally completely rebuilt from oil pan to carburetor at a cost of $3,200.00 in 1992 from a reputable local shop.  I have very good documentation on the engine rebuild with a list of new parts used and machine work. The new owner purchased historic license plates for the car and drove the car a total of 95 miles since the rebuild in 1992 to present. Most of the time the car has sat on a concrete slab beside his garage under a tree just watching the years roll by and slowly deteriorating. Through the years the car was started occasionally and later just turned over to keep it loose. The body on the car is very straight. The car appears to have had one repaint and the color changed from silver to white, this was a less than quality job and the white paint is flaking off in places. There is through rust low in both front fenders, there are rust bubbles starting to form in the front of both rear fenders, there is rust in the left hinge area of the hood and a crease from the hinge being stiff, there is rust along the lower lip of the deck lid. It would be best if the hood and deck lid could both be replaced, and the rest of the areas should be repairable. All of the glass is in tact, the wing windows are starting to bubble and there are some light wiper marks on the passenger side of the windshield, and the rest of the glass is excellent. The interior is the worst part of the car, the headliner has separated and is hanging down but all of the headliner trim is nice and still in place. The padded dash has a small split maybe 1" long. All of the seats are in place but need new covers, the door panels are in place but are starting to show wear, and the carpets are rotten and mostly removed so the floors can be seen.  The front passenger floor is soft and has holes and will need to be replaced, and the rest of the floors are brown but are solid. The dash insturments  are all in place as they should including the clock, the factory tach and the radio. The trunk floor is also very crusty, has holes and will also need work. The exterior trim is about 15% dinged up or pitted and about 85% excellent. Both bumpers are loosing chrome and the back one is bent, I do have a spare good front bumper. The grill and the aluminum trim on the deck lid is very nice. This Studebaker is equipped with power steering, Mark IV add-on A/C, bucket seats with a heater under the passenger seat, and a floor console. All of the tires have tread and the back two look brand new but the are all over 20 years old and dry rotted, but do hold air, all are on factory steel wheels with full wheel cover which are in good condition. The odometer reads 28,614 and I assume that is 128,614 but cannot document that. This is a complete car that I consider to be in very good condition for it's age and would make a great restoration project for someone to finish what was started 21 years ago, and remember that the engine only has 95 miles on it and the oil is still clean from that 1992 rebuild. The car is currently not running or road worthy and will need to be hauled to it's new home. I have tried to describe this old Studebaker to the best of me ability but have probably missed something that you would like to know, if so just ask. If you would like to inspect the car prior to the end of the auction again just ask and arrangements will be made. Car comes with a good Missouri title and a genuine 1959-1964 Studebaker shop manual. The winning bidder will be responsible for all transportation costs if needed, and I will help with arranging pickup and loading on this end.

Only best-performing US Fiat dealers to get Alfa Romeo franchises

Mon, Feb 24 2014

Alfa Romeo has been rumored to return to the US market so many times for so many years, it's hard to keep count. This time, though, Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne promises that it's for real. Alfa is scheduled to reappear in the States this summer with its 4C sports coupe as its introductory model. However, buyers won't be able to pop into just any Fiat showroom and leave with a 4C – it's planning to only sell Alfas at its best-performing dealers, according to The Detroit News. In fact, the first 4Cs sold here won't be sold at Fiat dealers at all. Instead the first shipment of cars in June will go to Maserati dealers, not unlike the handful of Alfa 8C Competizione coupe and convertible models that trickled in starting in 2008. According to Fiat Chrysler spokesperson Rick Deneau, the company is still deciding which Fiat retailers will participate in Alfa's reentry. Many of Fiat's US dealers are apparently not happy with the meritocracy approach. They built Fiat showrooms partially on the promise that Alfa would enter the US market in 2012, then 2013, and now later this year. Even worse for them, the prospects for more mainstream Alfa Romeo models in the US are still questionable. This isn't the first time that we've heard that Fiat plans to keep Alfa Romeo exclusive in the US. Still, Fiat only plans to export about a 1,000 4C sports coupes a year here. If Alfa wants to be a legitimate player in America and be a money-making concern globally, it will need far more sales than that.

Mysterious Maserati test mule could be upcoming Alfa Romeo Giulia

Mon, Dec 8 2014

Well well well, what have we here? The truth is that we don't know. It seems to be a Maserati Ghibli, but since that model is already out on the market, we're likely looking at something else. Just what is the question, and the answer likely lies in the wheelbase. While this test mule, spied undergoing cold-weather testing in northern Sweden, is clearly wearing the bodywork (and likely most of the mechanical bits) from the Ghibli, it's riding on a shortened wheelbase. Which tells us this could be one of two things: it's likely to be a test mule either for the upcoming Maserati Alfieri sports car, or for the new Alfa Romeo Giulia. The Alfieri was presented in concept form at the Geneva Motor Show back in March, foreshadowing a new sports car to serve as a halo model in the Maserati lineup. The production version is expected to be smaller and nimbler than the existing GranTurismo and positioned against the likes of the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type and Mercedes-AMG GT, to name just a few. The Giulia, meanwhile, is slated to be the first all-new Alfa Romeo since the arrival of the 4C last year and the Italian marque's first mainstream model since the launch of the Giulietta in 2010. The new sedan is expected to go after the likes of the BMW 3 Series and the new Jaguar XE, slotting in below the larger Maserati Ghibli that seeks to challenge the 5 Series and XF. If this is indeed a test mule for the new Alfa sedan, the quad tailpipes would seem, as our spy photographers point out, to indicate it's laying the groundwork for the GTA performance version. One way or another, there's something enticing to be coming soon from Italy, so watch this space.
