SynopsisThis book traces the development of Studebaker's Avanti from its 1962 introduction. Designed to be a four-seater muscle and sporty personal' car it used a fiberglass body because there was not the money to build it in steel. They powered he Avanti with the well respected 289 V8. Later the R2 engine was supercharged putting out close to 300bhp. Unfortunately sales did not match expectations and production ceased in 1964. Production was taken up by an erstwhile dealer using a Chevy V8 engine who continued until 1982. The company passed though several other hands until finally ceasing production in 1991. The book consists of contemporary road tests, specification and technical data, new model introductions, buyer's guides, design, driving impressions. Models covered include: R1, R2, R3 and Avanti II in CoupT and Convertible forms., This book traces the development of Studebaker's Avanti from its 1962 introduction.
