I just finished a long road trip from Bellingham, WA to Salome,, AZ and back with my first Avanti. The history is a sad one. The owner and his brother started a complete frame off restoration about 17 years ago. Around 10 years ago the brother passed and the car sit at his widows for some time. The owner then picked up the car about 8 years ago and it has sat in his shop in Arizona since. He had a heart attack and couldn't do anything with the car so it sat under a car cover in the corner of his shop for 6 or 8 years?? Rebuilt engine & trans have never been run! I found it through Craigslist where he was advertising two Avanti's. A "project" (the one I bought) and another 63 Avanti with a 350 Chev engine. The car was sold new in California and spent it's life in CA and AZ. Gold/elk, auto, ps, pb, air, tinted & power winders and radio. I have registrations going back to 1979. Here are some pictures loaded up and leaving AZ and several more from yesterday and today. Harvey
