Help Us Get the Studebaker to the Hong Kong to Beijing Rally!

Hey folks,

We’re raising funds to ship our iconic 1963 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk all the way to China to take part in the legendary Hong Kong to Beijing Rally (HK-BJ Rally) — and then bring her safely back home. This isn’t just a road trip… it’s a global mission to share American automotive history on the world stage!

We are the Only American Team in the HK-BJ Rally: Help Us Ship the Studebaker to China and Back!

Hey friends,

We’re raising funds to ship our 1963 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk from Nashville, Tennessee to Hong Kong, China — and back — to compete in the legendary Hong Kong to Beijing Rally. This isn’t just a rally entry — we’re proud to say we’ll be the ONLY team representing the United States in this incredible international adventure.

About the Rally

The HK-BJ Rally is one of the most prestigious and grueling vintage car events in the world, spanning thousands of miles from the coast of Hong Kong to the capital city of Beijing, and celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year. Teams from Europe, Asia, Australia and beyond will be driving classic and rally cars across mountains, deserts, and cities — and we’re bringing a bold piece of American history along for the ride.

About the Studebaker

Our Studebaker GT Hawk is currently being rehabbed for this amazing journey across the United States in the Hot Rod Power Tour, The Cheekwood Concours Elegance, The HK-BJ Rally, a trip to Mongolia, and culminating this journey at the AACA Fall Nationals in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Follow us through socials, and at https://studebakerchronicles.com

We’ve told the story at home — now it’s time to tell it on the road, across the world.

Why We Need Your Help

Shipping a vintage car across the globe (and back again) isn’t cheap — especially when you’re the lone U.S. entry in a global event. Your donations will help us cover:

International shipping to and from China

Rally entry fees

Insurance, crating, and customs

Mechanical prep for the journey

Documentation, storytelling, and support materials

Goal: $30,000

We’re not just driving a car — we’re carrying the AMERICAN FLAG ! We are a small team of like minded crazy car builders that don’t have unlimited resources, and whether you love rallying, vintage vehicles, or just seeing big dreams in motion, we’d love to have your support.
