Want to pay $55K for a 1963 Avanti in good shape?
The 1963 Avanti R2 was a great car for its times. I owned one In 1971. But this one is not well. There is bailing wire holding up one exhaust, a broken steering wheel (did that come from a wreck?) and the interior is non-original and ratty looking. Nothing is said about the engine. Do the gages work? How does the crome in the engine look. Is it auto or 4-spd? What do the hog troughs look like - There is rust on the wheels, the hog troughs are important to the structure. All in all, you have at least $25K of work to put this back in shape. Anyone want to pay $55K for this? Beyond that, does the supercharger even still work. Is the horizontal flow aluminum radiator still cooling stuff if you want to drive it at 150MPH. Someone may want this and this may be a reputable dealer, but this is way over priced.
