Facts about the model

Brittiska Humber tillverkade sin Hawk mellan 1945 och 1967. Generationen som tillverkades mellan 1957 och 1967 blev den sista. När den kom 1957 var det en helt ny konstruktion med självbärande kaross, som delades med större och lyxigare Super Snipe. Under huven satt en fyrcylindrig radmotor på 78 hk, fyrväxlad rattväxel och bakhjulsdrift. Hösten 1960 kom första uppgraderingen med servoassisterade bromsar fram. Fyra år senare kom sista evolutionen med ny taklinje och större fönsterytor.
Humber är likt merparten av alla brittiska gamla bilmärken idag borta från marknaden. Humber startade sin verksamhet i Sheffield 1868 med att bygga cyklar och redan 1898 byggde man sin första bil. Företaget växte organiskt och köpte senare även lastbilstillverkaren Kommer för att sedan själva bli uppköpta av Rootes. 1967 när Chrysler köpte Rootes försvann Humber från marknaden.
