    Probably through the 1” (?) hole provided to drain converter…. But more importantly ‘Why did this happen’?
  2. I’m happy that this forum has lasted as long as it has. Once again, it seemed at the time (2014) the plug was going to be pulled on it…. and then the Trivia feature was started… and this forum seemed to come alive! My suggestion would be to get away from the buying and selling and ‘how much is it worth’ banter…. It turns people who really care about these cars off. Avantis have always been a ‘cult’ car. Even when new in ‘63 they didn’t get strong approval from the general public….. Can we really expect a lot more interest from young folks now? Let’s face it, kids today couldn’t care less about cars…. It’s a different world now… and we really can’t do anything about that! I say if you own an Avanti simply enjoy it, drive it, take it to shows, and you’ll probably have the only one there, and show goers will seek YOU out to learn more about your interesting car. Will that result in another Avanti owner down the road? Who knows!…Ed

    Odd Avanti!

    In 1972, 1963 Stude Avanti # 63R1319 (R2) was advertised for sale… That Avanti had an unusual feature… What was that ? 1) One high backed front bucket Seat 2) Dropped front suspension spindles 3) A three speed o/d transmission or….4) Factory delete chrome ornaments on hood & earmuffs
  5. So after you purchased the R4 dual quad setup…. How much $$$ did Stu-V charge you for the special air cleaner assy to go with it? 1) $18.50…..2) $25…..3) $37.25….or…..4) $45

    Avanti Steering!

    That may work… however, as I mentioned to Gunslinger, this remedy is a bit easier. (no pricey parts to purchase)
