  1. You are no doubt speaking of another Mopar brake booster..Nice try though Bobby!
  2. Yes, most all those 'B' body Mopars used similar brake master cylinders
  3. As a side note..a Mopar friend of Mine's eyes popped out when he saw the factory brake booster on my '63 Avanti....It's exactly the same as the one Chrysler used on his '69 Dodge Daytona. which he thought was an extremely rare unit!
  4. I run a '74 Dodge Coronet dual master on my '63 Avanti..Same four bolt mount as Stude...probably close to what's on your Avanti now.
  5. OK.. makes sense!
  6. I have no idea what those special color formula cameras cost nowadays...but when they first came out (many years ago) I heard they cost $10,000 each!
  7. If that doesn't work, take your Avanti to a reputable auto body supply company.....Most have special cameras that can be laid onto paint surface, take photo, then formulate a paint formula for that color.... A free service if you purchase the paint there!
  8. I know one thing for sure Peter...the fit of the deck lid with gasket and without gasket are two entirely different things!
  9. I'd ground to horizontal dash brace... possibly under one of the nuts supporting steering column.

    Avanti Box!

    Yes exactly!.....In general use, rubber grommets with steel fuel lines passing through them can degrade with time...The '57 GH fuel delivery setup was pretty much 'bullet proof'! PS...As an economy measure, Studrbaker went to the 'grommet' setup on the 1958 Golden & Packard Hawks.
  11. Hmmm..I don't have one to check the prefix/suffix letters.....but according to someone we all recognize as quite knowledgeable, the GH's and Packard Hawk's were equipped with high stall converters!

    Avanti Box!

    Yes!..that's one for sure..... Now, how about the other even more important (in my opinion) feature?
  13. WOW!... the February '24 AOAI calendar car!..... Very late '64 square light' with all improvements....Gorgeous Avanti Maroon exterior finish...Halibrand style wheels with whitewalls....R2... Even folks that don't like Avantis (are there people like that?) would fall in love with this one!!

    Avanti Box!

    What two features make the design of the carburetor air box used on the '57 Stude Golden Hawk superior to the carb air box design used for the Avanti R3 engine?

    Avanti Steering!

    Yes, that's it!...A sensible mod I think...Got one on my '63!
  16. What Ford part is quite often swapped into power steering equipped Studebaker Avantis to make the power steering system on these cars easier to service?
  17. Studebaker Avantis and other '63-'64 Studes equipped with Powershift transmissions were equipped with a high stall speed torque converter....This same torque converter was first used in 1957 Studebaker Golden Hawks.... True?

    Avanti Rotor!

    Yes, you are correct, it's a 'drop in' replacement.

    Baffled Avanti!

    Yep!! FALSE it is!

    Avanti Pump!

    Yes...that's it exactly! .
