MoT Expiry: Exempt

*Seldom seen in the UK
*Original order throughout
*Appealing colour scheme

Often seen by classic enthusiasts as a very much a 'European' car, the Studebaker Avanti dispensed with excess chrome and fins and, thanks to its Raymond Loewy design, had a relatively subtle, restrained air. MPH is pleased to offer this 1963 model, which comes to market in good order, but with some scope for interior improvement. The bodywork and light metallic blue paint are in good order, with pleasing panel fit and good brightwork, and the engine bay is clean and tidy. The original hub caps are still fitted. Interior-wise the blue seats show little sign of wear and the door cards are in equally good order. Dashboard and steering wheel could benefit from a clean but present well, while the blue carpet requires replacing.
