Commander 57 ◊ 2012-04-03 17:57	Car is (was) a Silver Hawk, not Golden, and a '58, not '56. Incorrect nameplate on the decklid. All Golden Hawks were hardtops and this is a coupe. Unique 1958 circular grille medallion is missing. That is absolutely disgusting. Destroying such a rare and collectible car. Looks like it was immaculate prior to its abuse. That just ruined my day! -- Last edit: 2012-04-03 18:01:27
rjluna2 ◊ 2012-04-03 18:44	Welcome to the Hollywood sensation
cko ◊ 2012-04-03 18:54	Hollywood is full of environmentalists that will do anything to permanently rid the streets of fuel hogs like this and sadly have enough money to buy them before the poorer collectors get the chance to spare them. These are the folks that commended the "Cash or Clunkers" program. -- Last edit: 2012-04-03 18:59:55
Commander 57 ◊ 2012-04-03 19:15	Sigh. Rather like making a movie about an art vandal and actually filming him slashing a Rembrant, just because the producers could afford to buy one to destroy.
rjluna2 ◊ 2012-04-03 19:26	I know what you mean, Commander 57
93montero ◊ 2012-04-03 19:26	cko what are you talking about? They used a Scout as the main vehicle which gets very poor gas mileage. They know that the viewers will feel more emotion when a classic car is destroyed.

These are the folks that commended the "Cash or Clunkers" program. No, it's movie studios that can afford to buy classic cars and destroy them. Environmentalists worry about SUVs and other fuel hogs being produced now, not about classic cars that spend most of the time sitting at home.

cko ◊ 2012-04-03 21:14	Oh, just wait. I will bet you anything that the Scout shows up in another movie in the future and gets ruined then. They ave future plans to wreck it for sure. The Hollywood enviros view these cars as "polluters" from the emissions standpoint as well. Actually, Commander57s point about art vandals was brilliant.

antp ◊ 2012-04-03 23:26	@Commander 57 > it is indeed very sad I found that hurting when I watched the movie. But there is still a big probability that the car used for gentle close shots is not the same as the one seen in the day pictures. For example the front grilles seem less adjusted. I guess it was a car in bad state quickly repaired/repainted, it often happens (but even then, it is still sad). @cko > actually the Scout was quite well damaged by a lot of bulled holes
triumphman*123 ◊ 2013-05-04 16:36	As a lover of Studebaker Hawks (in particular Golden Hawks) these photos of the Silver Hawk being deliberately crashed absolutely sickened me. To think that this car has survived for 55 years, then these morons pointlessly wreck it in the name of entertainment is beyond belief.
Commander 57 ◊ 2013-05-04 17:05	I hope no member of the Studebaker Drivers Club sold it to them.

I agree with you fully. I would've shot that guard the instant I had the chance for crashing into a rare classic. Especially if it was MY '58 Stude!!
