R2 Heads Really Needed?
Mark63Avanti replied to mfg's topic in 1963-1964 Avanti R2, R3 models and R4, R5 Engines
That's interesting that the R1 engine was prone to pinging since that Avanti didn't come with a "use premium fuel" label on the gas cap. -
That is accurate per The New York Times.

Raymond Loewy himself designed the wheel cover.

Thought it was 1/4

I take back some of the bad things I thought about Checker.

So Studebaker was "goaded" into square headlight trim or were they doing that independently?
-
I'm hoping to find the tag that was bolted to the differential cover that stated "This is a twin traction differential" and the trim that went around the edge of the gas pedal. Here's hoping.

Seat belts and radio were an "opt out" item. You were getting it unless you said otherwise. I'm going to say TRUE, unless you really didn't want them.

To add insult to injury, Sears was sort of the Amazon of its day.

It must have been $25. Everything was cheaper back then.

I'll take a stab at #3 $325

Since you said a "rumor" I'm thinking it was a whopper of a rumor. My answer is 65!

You'll need the Hi and Lo tone horns. The one I had difficulty finding was the Lo tone since this one sat underneath the battery tray. Batteries would leak, taking out the horn eventually.
