One of only 4647 avantis were ever built by the studebaker corporation from june 1962 - december 1963. This 1963 avanti is only one of 3258 units that were manufactured in 1963. It is powered by a matching number 289 v-8 (240 hp) and a three speed power-shift automatic transmission. Only 10k miles on this freshly restored power train. This car runs and drives excellent, with zero lane travel, no shakes/shudder and is a blast on open road. The car was originally avanti red and was recently changed to a stunning merlot metallic (04 ford thunderbird color). This high quality paint job is a few years old but looks like it was done yesterday . The body was made of fiberglass, for lightweight handling and performance. Safety features included an overhead, vinyl-covered roll-bar, door reinforcements, and door locks designed with a stainless steel pin and lock system to achieve a positive lock. The suspension had front and rear sway bars. The avanti set 20 speed records, including the 4-speed transmission record of 172 mph and the automatic transmission speed record of 168 mph. It is loaded with options that make this classic such a pleasure to drive- power steering, power windows, disc brakes, factory air conditioning, two speed electric wipers and much more. Its had a few updates like a 10 disc cd changer and complete sound system, brand new tires, new shocks, new fuel pump, new coils and the fans and radiators have been upgraded to keep the motor cool. The torque boxes (or "hog troughs") in this avanti have already been updated. All dash gauges, lights and blinkers are in working order, as well as the factory horn. This car is a true american classic that is getting harder and harder to find, especially in this shape. This car is made for long trips or for cruising down to the car show.
