Onlytwo owners with exceptional mileage and beautifully maintained
This was my father's car, urchased in Naples, L from original owner and driven for the past 20 years on Sanibel Island, L. I live in Park City, T and have decided this is not the most practical for a ski town. The car has had minimal use, ust driven for his daily drive for the paper and coffee and the occasional highway car show trip when he was feeling up for it - incredible mileage for a car of this age.
In all honesty, am not very familiar with cars, ut it has been wonderfully cared for by Hunt Automotive Luxury Car Repairs and Storage in Fort Myers, L and I found the below list in file of items that have been restored/replaced:
New Bell Crank TowerNew Water PumpNew Drive BeltsNew Compressor and DrierNew Blower RheostatCustom Built Low Pressure HoseNewWindow Motor and Gear SetNew Water Outlet GasketNew Engine BeltNew Coolant Vacuum SwitchNew Brake Pad SetNew Wheel Bearings
While this is hard to sell, would like it to go to a good home who will appreciate and maintain this rare classic.
Please email me for any additional questions or for more photos.
Fromoriginal 1963 Studebaker manual (included in sale):
Avantiis as safe as it is thrilling. Safety-padded interior includes built-in safety arch over passenger compartment. Safety-cone door locks feature dovetail and tapered cone construction of latch mechanism. When closed, oor becomes structural member of body - almost as if entire side of body were one-piece unit.
Avanti's super-safe caliper-type disc brakes stop more safely, ven when wet. Performance-proven chassis with heavy-duty radius rods, tabilizer bars, ydraulic shock absorbers, oil and semi-elliptic springs, 6-to-1 optional manual steering ratio, ll contribute to precise handling. Avanti's Jet Thrust engine with four speed synchromesh transmission brings joy to the most jaded motorist.
The supreme comfort and convenience of Avanti's rich pile carpeting, ircraft-type overhead switches and illumination provide a dimension in satisfaction you must experience to believe. A great way to get ahead - in traffic or on the open road.
