1963 Studebaker Avanti

HI I AM REGRETFULLY SELLING MY 1963 STUDEBAKER AVANTI. THIS IS A SHOW QUALITY AVANTI, AND UNFORTUNATLY I HAVE TO SELL IT FOR PERSONAL REASONS. THIS CAR HAS HAD A GROUND UP RESTORATION AND IT WAS DONE A LITTLE OVER 5 YEARS AGO. IT HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 250 MILES SINCE THAT TIME. AT THAT TIME THE ENTIRE CAR WAS DISMANTLED AND THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WERE COMPLETLEY REBUILT TO FACTORY SPECS. IT STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL FACTORY ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. THIS AVANTI WAS ORDERED WITH TWIN TRACTION AND IT STILL HAS IT AS WELL. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE ITS BRAND NEW.
THE CAR WAS STRIPPED DOWN AND REPAINTED TO A SHOW QUALITY. THE BODY PANELS ARE RAZOR STRAIGHT. THERE IS OF COURSE NO CHIPS, DINGS OR STRESS CRACKS. THE PAINT IS NOTHING SHORT OF MAGNIFICENT. IT ACTUALLY STILL LOOKS WET. I AM NOT EXAGERATING WHEN I SAY THIS CAR TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY. FUNNY THING IS WHEN II AM HAVING A DOWN DAY I LIFT THE COVER TO GET A SMILE.
THE INTERIOR WAS COMLETLEY REMOVED FROM THE CAR AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN REDONE TO BE FACTORY CORRECT. THE INTERIOR IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOR ONE SPOT ON THE GAGE PANEL THE SIZE OF A QUARTER, THAT HAS PEELED AWAY. THE BACK TRAY WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED TO FACTORY SPECS AND IT ALSO IS PERFECT. THE DOOR HANDLES AND WINDOW CRANKS WERE REPLACED. THE CARPET, SEATS, DASH, DOOR PANELS, HEAD LINER AND CONSOLE ARE PERFECT. ALL OF THE GLASS IS ALSO PERFECT WITH NO SCRATCHES OR CRACKS. THE SEAT BELTS AND BUCKELS ARE PERFECT NO STAINS AND THE CHROME IS EXCELLENT.
THE FRONT AND REAR BUMBERS WERE RECHROMED TO A VERY HIGH STANDARD. THEY ARE DEFINITLY SHOW QUALITY.THEY ARE THE NICEST I HAVE EVER SEEN. ALL OF THE STAINLEES AND ALL OF THE REST OF THE CHROME HAS BEEN EITHER REDONE OR REPLACED, NEEDLESS TO SAY, IT LOOKS AMAZING. EVERY DROP OF RUBBER HAS BEEN REPLACED AND IS NEW.
THE ENTIRE CAR WAS REWIRED AND EVERY GAGE AND LITE OPERATES AS IT SHOULD. THE ENTIRE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS REPLACED AND FRONT POWER DISK BRAKES WERE INSTALLED IN THE FRONT.
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS THE ENTIRE UNDER CARRIAGE HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE TORQUE BOXES AND THE ALL IMPORTANT HOG THROUGHS HAVE ALSO BEEN REPLACED. THE UNDERSIDE DOES NOT HAVE A DROP OF RUST. ALL THE EXHAUST OF COURSE HAS BEEN REPLACED AS WELL.
I HAVE BEEN TOLD ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BY SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT THIS CAR IS INVESTMENT QUALITY. I PERSONALLY DO NOT HOLD MYSELF OUT TO BE AN EXPERT BUT I DO KNOW ITS AT LEAST SHOW QUALITY. I HAVE CONSIDERED SENDING IT TO A BARRETT-JACKSON AUCTION AND MAY STILL DO THAT IF NOT SOLD HERE.
THIS IS A LOW MILAGE CAR OF 23,299 MILES AND THAT IS WHAT THE TITLE REFLECTS AS WELL. THIS CAR WAS NUMBER 290 TO ROLL OFF THE ASSEMBLY LINE AND WAS MANUFACTURED 7-11-62. IT WAS NOT TITLED AND SOLD UNTIL 1964 SO THAT IS WHAT IT IS TITLED AS. THE REGISTRY RECOGNIZES IT AS A 1963 AS THIS WAS VERY COMMON.
I DO HAVE A COUPL;E VIDEOS OF THE CAR CLOSE UP AND RUNNING THAT I WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE TO REAL BUYERS.
0 BIDDERS AND LOW FEEDBACK BIDDERS MUST CALL PRIOR TO BIDDING AS I WILL ELIMINATE THIER BIDS. I AM AVAILABLE ANYTIME FOR YOU TO PREVIEW THIS CAR. MY NAME IS DAVID, AND CAN BE REACHED AT 856-308-6508.******* PLEASE PREVIEW THE TERMS OF MY SALE AS THOSE ARE THE ONLY TERMS OF THIS SALE AND I WILL NOT DEVIATE.******** I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME AS I DO HAVE THIS CAR FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL. THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS IS AND THERE ARE NO RETURNS.
