NO RESERVE AUCTION,    PLEASE READ COMPLETELY    THE PROJECT CAR THAT IS BEING LISTED HERE
 IS A VERY ORIGINAL AND CLEAN 1963 STUDEBAKER AVANTI WITH RARE FACTORY A/C.  THIS CAR IS 
ONE OF THE 4643 ORIGINAL AVANTI'S MADE.  THE ORIGINAL AVANTI'S WERE ONLY MADE FROM JUNE OF
 1962 TO DECEMBER OF 1963.  THIS CAR ACCORDING TO THE VIN NUMBER WAS ABOUT 3/4 OF THE WAY
 THROUGH THE PRODUCTION.  SOME OF THE OTHER OPTIONS ON THIS CAR INCLUDE: A/C, AM RADIO, PS,
 & PB.  IT HAS THE STANDARD R-1 289CI., 240HP, V-8 IN IT WITH AUTOMATIC TRANS.  IT DOES NOT
 RUN OR DRIVE BUT IT ROLLS EASILY AND WOULD BE EASY TO LOAD ON A TRAILER OR TRANSPORT TRUCK
.  IT HAS ITS ORIGINAL MOTOR AND TRANS AND A CLEAN & CLEAR GEORGIA TITLE.   THIS CAR WAS
 BOUGHT NEW IN TEXAS IN THE SUMMER OF 1963.  IN 1976 IT WAS TAKEN OFF THE ROAD AND STORED
 ( I BELIEVE THE MILEAGE IS CORRECT AT 45,000).  IN 1978 A GENTLEMAN FROM GEORGIA BOUGHT 
IT AND TRANSPORTED IT TO GEORGIA.  HE WAS GOING TO RESTORE IT AND NEVER DID.  IT 
SUBSEQUENTLY SAT IN HIS GARAGE IN GEORGIA FROM 1978 TILL 2008.   WHEN THE GENTLEMAN 
IN GEORGIA BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS SITTING IN A BODY SHOP JUST THE WAY YOU SEE IT NOW.
  THE BODY ON THIS CAR HAS NOT BEEN TOUCHED SINCE 1978.   THE ORIGINAL COLOR OF THIS 
CAR WAS GOLD AND SOMEONE PAINTED IN YELLOW SOME TIME IN THE PAST AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT
 WAS BEING PREPARED FOR PAINT AGAIN AND THEN WORK WAS STOPPED.  WHEN I BOUGHT IT THE 
MOTOR AND TRANS WHERE NOT IN IT.  I SET THE MOTOR AND TRANS BACK IN THE CAR A FEW MONTHS
 AGO JUST SO IF SOMEONE BOUGHT IT AND NEEDED TO HAVE IT TRANSPORTED IT IS ONE COMPLETE 
PACKAGE AND IS READY TO BE TRANSPORTED.  I WAS TOLD THE SECOND OWNER REBUILT THE MOTOR
 IN THE EARLY 80'S, BUT BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR SUCH A LONG TIME IT SEEMS TO BE
 STUCK.  IT PROBABLY JUST NEEDS TO HAVE SOME MARVEL MYSTERY OIL PUT IN THE CYLINDERS 
AND ALLOWED TO SOAK AND IT WOULD PROBABLY TURN OVER.  

I HAVE INCLUDED SOME  PICTURES (BELOW) OF THE BOTTOM OF THIS CAR TO SHOW THAT THE  HOG
 TROUGHS ARE SOLID AS A ROCK WITH NO RUST EVER.  THEY JUST HAVE SOME LIGHT SURFACE RUST
 ON THEM FROM BEING STORED FOR YEARS.  THIS IS THE TYPICAL, DRY TEXAS CLEAN CAR.  IT IS
 VERY SOLID WITH ONLY VERY MINOR SURFACE RUST.   THE GLASS, STAINLESS TRIM, AND CHROME
 TRIM ARE ALL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND THE HUBCAPS ARE NEAR MINT.  

 THE FIBERGLASS BODY ON THIS CAR IS REALLY NICE EXCEPT FOR A COUPLE OF  REPAIRED AREAS,
 ON TOP OF THE FRONT FENDERS BY THE HOOD ABOVE THE FRONT WHEELS,( THE PERSON THAT REPAIRED 
IT HAD NO IDEA WHAT HE WAS DOING)   AND A COUPLE LITTLE CRACKS BY THE TAILIGHT AREA, 
  I RESTORE CARS FOR A LIVING AND I LIKED THAT THE CAR HAD ALL THE PAINT OFF IT SO I
 COULD SEE THE BODY.     BESIDES THE CRAPPY REPAIR SOMEBODY DID ON THE FRONT AREAS 30
 PLUS YEARS AGO, THE BODY IS REAL NICE FOR ITS AGE,  THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE, THE 
MAJORITY OF THE PAINT IS OFF AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR
 LOOKING AT.    

THE INTERIOR OF THIS CAR IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE FOR 46 YEARS OLD.  THE GAUGES ARE NICE
 AND NO CRACKS IN THE DASH. 

THIS CAR IS PRETTY COMPLETE EXCEPT FOR THE FOLLOWING: PARTS THAT ARE MISSING,  CARB, AIR
 CLEANER , SURGE TANK,  GRILL, AC CONDENSOR , 1 EXHAUST MANIFOLD, FLY WHEEL, AND A COUPLE
 OF OTHER MISC. SMALL PARTS, HOSES ETC. .  I WOULD SAY THE CAR IS  95% COMPLETE.
  /////////////  ALL THE FACTORY AC PARTS ARE THERE EXCEPT THE CONDENSOR..

PARTS THAT ARE INCLUDED   I HAVE INCLUDED A PICTURE BELOW WITH JUST SOME OF THE PARTS
 THAT ARE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR.  SOME OF THE OTHER PARTS THAT ARE INCLUDED BUT NOT 
PICTURED ARE:  FAN CLUTCH, FAN SHROUD, RADIATOR, SPARK PLUG WIRE HOLDER BRACKETS, 
THE CHROME COVERS FOR THE SPARK PLUG WIRES, DISTRIBUTOR AND A BUCKET OF MISC BOLTS
 AND SOME OTHER SMALL BRACKETS.  LIKE I WAS SAYING EARLIER THE CAR IS 95% COMPLETE.
  ALL OF THE EXTRA PARTS THAT COME WITH THIS CAR HAVE BEEN NEATLY PACKED INTO THE 
TRUNK OF THE CAR SO IT IS READY TO BE SHIPPED.  THESE AVANTI'S ARE STARTING TO GO
 UP IN VALUE AND I'M OFFERING THIS ONE WITH NO RESERVE SO IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A 
UNIQUE PROJECT CAR THIS IS IT!!!
