Way Ahead of Its Time, the Studebaker Avanti Was the Fastest American Coupe of the 1960s

Introduced in 1962 by Studebaker, the Avanti was billed as “America’s only four passenger high-performance personal car.” An amazing find that we had to bring back to the UK.

What we have here is a 1982 Studebaker Avanti II. While Studebaker stopped production at its main factory in 1964, the Avanti and the Avanti II lived on under a number of arrangements with the Avanti Motor Company, GM and Ford. They were made with various chassis and engine configurations. This lovely 1982 model is a recent show winner and has a brand new interior. Built on a Studebaker chassis, It has a GM sourced 305 V8 with Turbo 350 automatic transmission. Come see it here in Houston! | Gate
