Part # 1539769 Shift Indicator Dial for a 1956 Studebaker Golden Hawk with Ultramatic transmission. This is a reproduction part produced by Carole Rossman in the late 1990s. Carole worked at a plastic company and was going to reproduce this item. She also had made a mold and reproduced a 1956 Golden Hawk steering wheel. However, her husband Dale passed away in 2000, and nothing more was ever done on either of these projects. Carole moved and I lost contact with her.
This is one of two Carole produced and she sent it to me as both a gift and for my comments. I never used it on my car because I had bought an NOS one in the mid 1980s. It is an excellent reproduction and would look great on any 56 GH. Be sure to add me to your favorites list! Check out my other items! |

BMW M5 celebrates 30th birthday, promises a surprise
Mon, 14 Apr 2014The BMW M5 has been with us for 30 years. That's right: The E28 premiered in the fall of 1984 as a 1985 model after its debut at the Amsterdam Motor Show. Even though its performance figures have aged somewhat (in the best way possible), it's important to remember that it was the fastest production sedan in the world when it premiered.
July 11: Visiting a rival
Sun, 11 Jul 2010I will take it to work all week, including Wednesday when I go to Santa Monica to drive a Nissan Leaf electric car. I wonder how they'll take to seeing a competitor in the parking lot. Not far enough to worry about range, though I will look for a charging spot in Santa Monica.
Bertone Jaguar B99 GT concept (2011) at the Geneva motor show
Thu, 03 Mar 2011Bertone B99 GT – the racing version Next to the fully-trimmed B99 show car on Bertone's stand is an exterior mock-up of a GT2-class racing B99. Two additional electric motors up front mean the GT has 972bhp all wheel drive capability. A carbonfibre splitter, diffuser and flat undertray are matched with a massive bootlid wing. There's enormous side-exit exhausts for the range-extender generator, a 100mm lowering job and a lurid green paintjob. It’s an extreme way for Bertone to highlight the dual images of luxury and performance that Jaguar has in its heritage – particularly since there aren’t currently any saloons in the FIA GT2 series. Perhaps they should have painted it in a '70s Broadspeed XJC touring car livery to get the full effect. More details on the Bertone B99 exterior design Bertone claims that it has modernized classic Jaguar three-box saloon design with the B99, with Bertone’s design chief Mike Robinson and his team drawing inspiration not just from past Jaguars, but the stealthy big cat that lends its name and image to the brand. They coined the slogan "Cunning Glamour with Race-Bred Innovation” to embody the B99’s design… but from the two cars on the stand it looks like reconciling those disparate aims in the one vehicle may have been a bit beyond them. The roofline has been shortened and lowered in proportion to a conventional three-box body, inspired by a Jaguar cat stalking its prey.
