. This 1963 Studebaker Avanti is an excellent rust free survivor original with 289 V-8 Power windows Power disc brakes and good California history going back to the 1980's when the former owner Charles Mylor owned it. The Vault Classic Cars dealership recently purchased it from the estate and got it up running and driving ! .

Here is a video of the car as it is now in action and operating! The car had been sitting barn find style in the former owner's driveway. We rescued it and performed the necessary CPR. It Lives !

. It's all stock and authentic with the Studebaker 289 R-1 V-8 Borg Warner automatic transmission and Power steering Power front disc brakes Power windows and full instrumentation including Tachometer. And a brand new Strato-View rear view mirror on the fender! . Excellent fiberglass solid hog-troughs and frame. Good original chrome and stainless. . Brand new dual exhausts from manifold to exhaust tip. Brand new 15 inch whitewall tires. Current title plate and registration with no back fees. . The brilliance of using fiberglass was the ability to make curves and surfaces that couldn't be done with steel. When you look at other 1963 automobiles they're basically square boxes with some texturing / styling on the sides. The AVANTI on the other hand was curvy everywhere and it was beautiful viewed from any angle ! . The original '63/64 Studebaker Avanti's had a rakish stance. The later ones the Avanti II's and later had to make room for the increased height of the Chevrolet Engine so they just don't look right! . No Chevrolet here! This is the stock and original Studebaker 289 V-8 Running good ! Note the ignition shielding. I have the spark plug shields and they're included with the car but they're not installed right now. . The original interior ! It's held up pretty well! The carpeting is very tired and I would think you would want to re-do the front seats but overall amazingly good for original ! . The original back seat - clean no rips or tears in the original Elk Vinyl. . Excellent original! I noticed that the console vinyl and the rear arm-rests appear to be died in the Elk color over Orange ( ! ) pieces. Orange was an Avanti interior color but I don't understand why Orange would be here in an obviously originally Elk interior. I guess I'll never know. . Nice original dash with a couple of cracks showing. You'll also note the A/C vents. It appears the former owner was in the process of converting the car to A/C. I include the fan assembly and the console side panels with the car. There would still be quite a bit of work and parts needed to actually finish the A/C conversion. .

All of those guages work properly except for the Tachometer. .

. Nice original headliner with padded "Roll Bar" . Note there's one little puncture in the headliner. . Nice Original doorpanels. . When bucket seats were really bucket seats! . Roof mounted headlight instrument light and heater / defroster switches. Part of what makes the Avanti so cool ! . Trunk is pretty clean. When we got the car it had a trunk mounted battery which is now gone in favor of the correct 3EE 12 Volt "Suitcase" style battery under the hood. . Jack and jack crank in the spare tire well and lugwrench in the special area off to the left. It is missing the spare tire and wheel. . New exhaust and solid frame! . Stock and authentic the way it should be. . Another view of the 289 Studebaker R-1 V-8 . The right door had some unprofessional fiberglass repair. There are also 2 holes in the other door where a non-authentic mirror used to be. Other than that the fiberglass on this car looks really good to me ! . There's the original Blue personalized plate I'll also include the rear plate. The current plate on the car is a modern California white plate shown in some of the other photos. . Sure it needs a paint job and some cleanup but it's a really good solid easy to restore - and reasonably priced - authentic R-1 Avanti ! . Another great angle on the Avanti Styling! . A great profile ! . A good car! . Offered by the Vault Classic Cars Dealership Anaheim CA call us at 714-401-1047 International customers are welcome to buy! We’ve sent many cars overseas.
