Truck heads and 'export' they are....The combustion chambers are larger in R2 heads than in an R1 head.
-
Gunslinger was correct with six....and Brad has a valid point that what I called brackets are part of the stainless grille.
-
True.
I'm afraid not!...The '64 Avanti R2 style air cleaner is considerably different from the '63.
-
No, under the glove box.
Under it is...as Studebaker had done for many years.
-
False, it was the only years they used a GM bolt pattern.
GM it is!

You forgot the two on the later door panels.
No, not really....The question referred to 1963 Avantis....not 1963 'transition models' or 1964 Studebaker Avantis!

Trivia...The design of the air cleaner assembly used on R2 model Avantis was changed during the Studebaker production run of these cars....True?

Kind of a 'trick' question....but you nailed it with the A/C mention!...Your yes and no answer is spot on!

Right-O!

That's it...3.31 on the '63 R1 auto Avanti!

Same here Gunslinger...I'd say you're right!

-
I'm partial to the black that my '64 was dressed in.
That's really rare.....between the '63 and the '64 model Avantis, I'll bet only a handfull came out of the factory painted black. There were probably more Avanti ll's painted black!
-
Yep, thinner front engine mounts....and the belts really must be close to the p/s ram!
