1963 Studebaker Avanti R1

This is an all original round headlight California Car.  It is fully loaded with no rust and excellent mechanics.  It is an original maroon/burgandy color with an excellent running 289 Studebaker engine and 4 barrel carb.  Everything under the hood is completely stock and original in appearance  including the chrome distributor and plug wire shielding.  It also has the original chrome air filter and valve covers.  The A/C unit is the original studebaker compressor with tag ID and blows ice cold.  All the controlls work.  You turn on the radio and the antenna comes up in the rear.  All the gages work.  All the push pull controls work and all the overhead switches work.  The only thing not working is the power windows and door locks.  (No power).  The body is excellent with a no wreck history.  The hood, doors and trunk all shut perfectly.  There is no rust under this car and also no leaks.  It can sit for a month without a drop of anything under it.  The paint is nice and shiney but has lifted away from the fiberglass in three spots.  Under gas cap area like most of them, (pretty minor spots).  The rear window tint needs to be replaced.  Some other minor detail work is needed in spots. 

It starts right up and drives great.  I have found no problems on the road.  It has 4 nice michelin tires and a posi traction rear end.  I have just changed the oil, filter and plugs.  Although I don't reccomend driving (new/old) cars home I think this one ought to be fine.  In 1962 this 289 engine set a land speed record of 171 MPH in 60.8 seconds and the quarter mile at 107 MPH.  This one runs great.  The pictures do not indicate how solid and comfortable it is or how good the black leather seats feel but the quality is there.  For an unrestored car it is in great shape.  It need some little stuff and detail work but it is all still available and pretty cheap.  It comes with a 63 parts and work shop book.  Plus todays 2007 parts supply book.  I have a low reserve and it will sell.  For more information call Dave at 239-947-6074.  Glockauto is not the owner.  Emails will be instructed to call Dave.  Thanks from Bill and Dave.
