Introducing America's Most Advanced Automobile! “The Avanti by Studebaker is a prestige car, a fast car, a safe car and certainly the most advanced car produced in America today” ~ Sherwood Egbert, President of Studebaker Corperation. The car had a fair amount of success but not enough to save the ailing Studebaker Corp. When the factory closed its doors in 1963, the Avanti carried on its name plate under Avanti Motor Corporation. The Avanti II became the successor of the original and with the help of General Motors, Ford and a few independent manufactures, the Avanti name plate made a run under some different configurations until 2006. All sporty, all unique and all built to the original statement by Sherwood Egbert.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this two owner Avanti II for consideration. The 2 Owner 1980 Avanti II offered here has been in the same hands since 1988 until our recent acquisition. The car as shipped from the factory on April 4, 1980, is finished in Contessa Pewter Metallic paint, over Storm Clouds genuine leather full seats and interior trim. The interior also features silver brushed aluminum accents and Cornet Shalimar Taupe Shag Carpet. Options per the shipper invoice include: 350 CID engine, automatic transmission, power steering, air-conditioning, sunband in windshield, tinted side windows, Blaupunkt AM/FM stereo, rear electric antenna, internal control mirrors, door and fender protectors, rear window deicer, moon roof, electric windows, electric door locks, right side fixed mirror, wire wheel covers, cruise control, electric trunk release, internal control mirror, rear seat and under dash speakers, with dealer installed undercoat and trunk carpet. Today, this Avanti II remains highly original as it left the factory, runs and drives very nicely and will offer plenty of enjoyment for its third owner.
