mfg Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 Unlike Studebaker Avantis, the first Avanti ll was not equipped with the stainless steel ignition shielding........True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunslinger Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 I will say true. Since the first Avanti II used an engine from a wrecked Corvette it would not (or could not) have used the Studebaker ignition shielding. If the Corvette shielding was still present they may have used that but they were more interested in proof of concept they could build a viable car and not the little niceties such as ignition shielding.
