That seems like a pretty reasonable number for this car. Did I miss something? I didn't look all that closely since it's an Avanti.

These Avanti "re-makes" just don't garner the collectible coin of the originals. :huh:

 

[Dr.Jass]

No, but they should. I mean, the're not really "re-makes" since the car itself remained in production in the original plant with the original tooling until 1987. So they have all the "charm" of the originals: spotty build quality, Studebaker quirkiness, and butt-ugly forward visage. However they've got better drivetrains in them '65-up. Hey, at least you can get parts for a SBC/TH trans.

I've talked with a few Stude owners and surprisingly NOS parts are quite easy to get, even trim parts. :huh:
