Cars: Studebakers: Golden Hawk
What a Piece of Work I Am, Chapter 17:
“And when Guy’s Golden Hawk pulled into the parking lot of the Manifest Destiny Diner—”
“You’re right! He did have a Golden Hawk.”
“Of course. I remember Guy. I’m sure I do. The memory is strong, because I envied him doubly. He had you, and he had a Hawk.”
“With those fins! A very sharp car! Literally!”
