This is an example of a rare version from the very early Corgi catalogue. The Studebaker Golden Hawk with a Mechanical motor came out in February 1958 but these ceased to be made in 1959 so it is one of the short-lived models and didn’t sell that well either in this form.
The white model with a gold flash is always the M version, the freewheeling one being blue. This white colour does show every chip but this one is fairly good.
This one has clear windows and they’re quite clean but there is a little dust inside that always happens on these models. Careful cleaning with a small piece of cloth on a wire can remove this. The wheels and tyres are all good and the motor is working.
These are scarce now and hard to find in original condition.
This example is also finished in the more usual bright, clean white.
