lschuc 0 Report post Posted July 30 Not sure, other than it was the 325th Avanti produced. Last was owned by a former member, inactive since 2006, in Dixon, Illinois. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1963r2 0 Report post Posted August 1 11 hours ago, Gunslinger said: I'll take a SWAG...the first Avanti with a 160 mph speedometer? Maybe but my R2 (1499) has a 140 mph speedo. Unless it was changed at some point. Pb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mfg 0 Report post Posted August 3 ANSWER....Great thoughts!, however, 63R1325's true claim to fame is actually a bit obscure!.......The R1 engine in this Avanti was the last one 'Old Man Salay' rebuilt in South Bend before he passed away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
