The Studebaker Avanti was a sports coupe built by the Studebaker Corporation at the direction of its president Sherwood Egbert between June 1962 and December 1963. It has been described as 'one of the more significant milestones of the postwar industry', gaining iconic status with enthusiasts and collectors.
Designed by Raymond Loewy's team of Tom Kellogg, Bob Andrews, and John Ebstein on a 40-day crash program, the Avanti featured a radical fiberglass body design mounted on a modified Studebaker Lark Daytona 109-inch convertible chassis with a modified 289 Hawk engine. Only 4,643 Avantis (not including prototypes, some of which were assigned serial numbers at the end of the run) were produced.
This Avanti is in original, unrestored condition. The paint, interior, and motor are 100% original. It has 48,000 original miles.
This car's owner is its third. The car was sold new to a doctor in Northwest Pennsylvania.
