Nicely preserved Avantis are getting harder to find. Especially when configured like this rare example. Equipped from the factory with a 289ci Studebaker V8, this car was treated to the optional Paxton Supercharger. Even better, that extra horsepower and torque is handled by a rare factory 4-speed manual transmission! This was high-grade performance from an American manufacturer BEFORE the muscle car era began.
Making it even more special, this Avanti has been kept within the same family for most of its life. In recent years, it has been treated to a complete restoration to factory specs, documented with receipts, photos and detailed notes. Finished in a modern base/clear replication of the original Avanti Red with Elk leather interior, this car is stunning and commands attention. Take a good look through the attached photos. You’ll find this car to be exceptionally in every way.
