mfg Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 At the 2009 Avanti International Meet which was held in Chicago, five very special Avantis were brought together and put on display....What was special about these five Avantis?

plwindish Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Don Hart from St. Louis and co-chair of the 2015 St. Louis SDC International Meet is by the closest Avanti. Mike is by #4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dscth Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 In Lew's first photo, the gentlemen (and serial numbers) from right to left are Don Hart (RQB-3804), Jack Ammons (RQB-3815), Randy Cunningham (RQB-?), Mike Baker (RQB - 3825) and Larry Rembold (RQB-3810). According to John Hull's book "AVANTI The Complete Story", Steve Blake built 25 1983 "20th Anniversary Coupes". These identical black exterior / two-tone grey leather interior vehicles have a "euro-tech" look and are the first production Avanti's with composite in place of chrome bumpers.
