We’re thrilled to announce that our Modernism Tour will feature a true midcentury showstopper: a 1962 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk, owned by the incomparable Mr. Todd Garth! 🚗✨

Todd, and this absolutely fabulous set of wheels, came to us courtesy of our very own Keith Montgomery, who knows Todd through the Modern Men Chorus right here in Palm Springs. Even better, Keith and Chuck’s unit is one of the seven spectacular units featured on this year’s tour!

Now for a little backstory of this incredible ride: This GT Hawk is one of the first 200 to roll off the Studebaker assembly line in South Bend, Indiana, likely during the very first week of production in early October 1961. It was shipped to Modesto, California, where it spent its first 40 years cruising the Central Valley. From there it made its way to Los Angeles, and ultimately found its perfect home with Todd here in Palm Springs.

Todd calls it “the quintessential midcentury California hardtop coupe,” and we couldn’t agree more.

We can’t wait to showcase this stunning piece of automotive history on February 21 in our south parking lot.

🎟️ Get your tickets now and don’t miss it!

Palm Springs in the ‘60s had a certain sparkle — the kind that made people pack up their worries, head for the desert, and instantly feel 10 years younger. Firebird Estates was built right in the middle of that moment, and walking through it today still feels like you’ve stepped into a sun-washed postcard from 1964.

The breezeblock, the pool, the mountain views… it’s all exactly the kind of quiet glamour people came here for and what you will see on Feb. 21st during Modernism Week! And if you want to really dial back the clock, we’ll have our 1961 Nash Metropolitan parked out front. Hop in, take a photo, and—for a split second—you might just believe you’re on your way to dinner with Sinatra.

Firebird Estates: a little retro, a little romantic, and still very much Palm Springs. Buy your Modernism Tix to experience it!
