Studebaker and Nash Cars in India - Team-BHP

Spotted this long time back in Pune J-V motors. It was there for paint job.

JayD · 7th August 2008, 16:23

Oh man! Now that's a beautiful car. Is this the same one that was featured in bs motoring a while back? The stude coupes of this era were truly beautiful. Too bad they screwed up the saloon designs after 1957.

wow thats one very well maintained studabaker. Does anybody have more info on this beauty?

motorheadinc · 7th August 2008, 16:30

Man do I love Pune.
This is the city to live for all automaniacs.
Any info where we can see this beauty in flesh(or rather metal)?

I believe the owner stays somewhere on DP road as I had spotted this beauty once there & Karl too had confirmed this.

The car is in Mint condition

I can ask my contact in J -V motors where this car was present for 2 weeks for coloring job. It is way longgggg. I was stunned looking at this beauty and the way owner has maintained it.

Indeed. She's been in the family from new, and is the genuine item, a Golden hawk - supercharged no less! She is used once a week without fail, I regularly see her on the road, and what a sight she is!

The BSMotoring car I think was a Power Hawk, red colour with a CP regn.

Karl nice to see you again.
Can we get to see her too???

I dont know the owner personally, so it wouldn't be right to divulge the location. Just stand on DP road on a Saturday morning till you see it.

WoW ! What a car! I have seen them in Movies and scale models.
I never thought there would be one in India.

senindra · 7th August 2008, 19:51

WOW! Thats one well mantained car, I was just imagining the same with some fat rubber and large alloys

. But some things just look good original.

girishpv · 7th August 2008, 20:11

i think the car your talking off Karl was the Flight Hawk belonging to Captain B. i have not seen the edition but red and CP registration number gets one car to mind.

Certainly the same car, my mistake if it is a Flight Hawk. Would you have any pics?
