One unique feature of the Studebaker Avanti four-door prototype, crafted in Italy, is that it was constructed of steel.....True?

False, I thought France was the location.

Nor is it really four doors; there are three; two on the driver's side, and one on the passenger's side. The two were built by Pichon-Parat near Paris, France out of steel, and were referred as 'Avanti II' in-house in 1962-3 (before we actually had the Newman & Altman Avanti II's)

Also, these care were NOT Avantis. They were a study to consider the infulence of the Avanti design on the other models.

And all-in-all, the Avanti influence came off rather well I thought!
