Vehicle Description Studebaker Avanti 1964 - Very rare - 300 produced - R2 Super-Charged This Avanti is in extremely nice condition. Let me first say this is not my car, I'm just listing for a good friend. This lovely Avanti was purchased from a third owner. It has the 289 V8 with an automatic transmission. 107,000 original miles with 39k miles on a rebuilt engine. The car was stripped to bare fiberglass. Slight damage on front right was corrected. Totally repainted in black urathane. A beautiful and complete job was done. Very straight body. It takes alot of prep work to do black, especially with a fiberglass body. Very few left the factory because of that alone. All rubber trim in good to excellent condition - also all glass in fine condition. The seats and carpets are new, and a new padded dash was installed. The 205x15 radials are in nice shape. The car comes with Dunlop power front disc brakes which work well. These cars were well ahead of their time with factory seat belts, front disc brakes, factory padded dash, Mercedes Benz door latches, and in-roof roll bar. I did notice a couple of minor oil leaks, but nothing to worry about. All of the chrome and stainless is also in very good condition. Check out the vanity mirror in the glove box in one of the pics very unique. This Avanti runs, drives, and looks extremely nice. Don't miss this chance to add this one in your garage. Please don't ask what the reserve is - just bid what you will pay for it. May cancel auction at any time for outside sale. Please call Steve 208-376-0701 or 208-323-1728 for any questions you may have and I'll be happy to get you the answers as quick as I can. Good luck in the auction.
