The Studebaker Avanti had an interesting history throughout its
on-again/off-again production. Studebaker originally released the
Avanti to compete with sports cars such as the Chevrolet Corvette,
but over-promised and under-delivered on its production numbers.
The Avanti was only briefly produced by Studebaker from 1962 to
1964. After which, the Avanti name and tooling were sold to a
couple of Studebaker dealers, in 1965, who produced the Avanti in
the same facility until 1982. In 1982, the Avanti name and tooling
were sold again to Stephen Blake, who produced the Avanti until
1985. This Avanti is a nice, unmodified, driver quality example of
the 200 Blake Avanti's built for the 1984. This Avanti presents in
overall nice condition with the repainted Champagne Metallic
showing some age throughout. The very original fiberglass body is
in excellent condition free of any dents or cracks. The Champagne
exterior is complimented nicely by its original stainless trim and
factory chrome wire wheels wrapped in new Mastercraft Avenger GT
raised white letter tires. The Bisque leather interior appears to
be all original and in above average condition for the age.
Powering this great Avanti is its 305 cubic inch V8 backed by its
700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. Both the engine and
transmission perform just as they should. This Avanti is very well
equipped with factory options such as: power steering, power front
disc brakes, air conditioning, heater/defrost, cruise control
(in-op), tinted glass, in-dash tachometer, power windows, power
door locks, power moonroof, AM/FM radio, power driver side mirror,
remote trunk release, and intermittent wipers. If you are in the
market for an extremely solid, driver quality Avanti that is turn
key ready to drive anywhere, then you will want to take a very
close look at this 1984 Avanti.
