The change was made at a body number and not a serial number. My Avanti is R4137 and body number RQ-2998. Built April, 1963 R4341 has body number RQ-3011. Built May, 1963 R4130 has a South Bend body, RQ-5190. Built April, 1963

The hood brace was eliminated during the 1963 model year.

Without some documentation there is no way to know for sure when it was placed in service as a demonstrator or when it was sold. It could have been placed in service in October or a later date. Studebaker paid some incentives to dealers at the end of the model year and this may one of them.

The $200.00 would be a credit to the dealer when the Avanti was put into service as a demonstrator. The Avanti could have been in stock for several months, however it would not qualify for the credit until the dealer registered it with Studebaker's Demonstrator Program. From Studebaker: " The retail purchaser of any vehicles previously used as a demonstrator is entitled to any mileage or time period remaining in the warranty, calculated from the date the vehicle was first placed in service as a demonstrator"
