Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this clean 1963
Studebaker Avanti R1. The Studebaker Avanti is a maverick among
American sports cars. Fiberglass like a Corvette, but with four
seats. Stylish, but in the European vein. The Avanti was a definite
departure from the norm. In 1962 Studebaker promoted a Modified R3
variant as the World's Fastest production car. With certified
records at speeds up to 178.5mph it definitely was! This 1963
Avanti R1 isn't quite up to those velocities, but it's a cool ride
none the less. Finished in a lovely shade of cream over cream cloth
interior, this Avanti is a striking ride. This car was optioned
with the R1 engine. This consisted of a 4bbl 289 V8, good for
240hp. This car was also blessed with - still cold - AC, AM/FM
radio, power brakes and seat belts. The interior is in good
condition with no rips or tears and the dash looks resplendent in
its crack-free, cream finish. The big wood wheel and four-speed
shifter give a sporty touch. An extra bonus is the brown carpet and
patterned headliner, which offer an extra layer of class. With less
than 4600 produced in 1963, these stylish coupes are a rare sight.
