Our Take:
- Decades-old Design Delight: The 1963 Studebaker Avanti is a true blast from the past, designed by the legendary Raymond Loewy. It's not just a car; it's a rolling piece of art with its streamlined, aircraft-inspired body. Back in its day, the Avanti was cutting-edge, boasting a fiberglass body that was a pretty daring choice.
- R1 V8 and Automatic Transmission: Here, you've got the R1 V8, a robust powerplant making around 240 horsepower, which was quite impressive for the early '60s. Paired with an automatic transmission, this Avanti offers an easy-going cruising experience—perfect for those vintage road trips where the journey is just as important as the destination.
- Rare Black with Modern Touches: Black wasn't the most common color for the Avanti, which makes this one a bit special—kind of like finding a black sheep in a flock of whites and grays. And did you catch those new Magnum 500 wheels? They give the car a dose of modern flair while maintaining a classic aesthetic.
- A Collector's Gem with Comforts: With its working power windows and air conditioning, this Avanti isn’t just about looks. It keeps you comfy while you relive the glory days of American automotive history. Plus, the fact that it's been driven a moderate 60,000 miles means it's been loved but not overly worn out—a sweet spot for collector cars.
