InsuranceBought approximately 7 years ago from individual in South Bend, I. 1971 Studebaker Avanti 2. One of 107 made in 1971 in S. Bend, IN. Has original GML48 engine with bored over .30, performance cam. Original 3 speed automatic transmission. Replaced all 4 shocks, bell crank (steering), power steering, “hog toughs”/ torque boxes (stainless steel), newer radial tires, newer battery, front disc brake calipers, air filter, fuel filter, new window regulators, new exhaust. Almost everything works except temp gauge can be sporadic and never tried A/C, and radio doesn’t work.
We’ve owned it for approximately 8 years. All repair work receipts are available. Why selling? Storage issues.
