mfg Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 All '65-'82 Avantis had a chrome 'll' emblem beside the 'AVANTI' nameplate on the front nose panel.....True?
plwindish Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) True, also on the trunk. Steve Blake removed the II designation after he took control of Avanti Motors. Edited February 22, 2015 by plwindish
mfg Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 plwindish says 'true'..........Any other thoughts on this question?
Gunslinger Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 The first couple of Avanti II prototypes had a circular decal or sticker with the "II" emblem. Early sales materials show it clearly. Whether they may have had the stickers replaced with the chrome emblems I don't know, but they were used at least long enough for promotional photography at the beginning.
mfg Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 Gunslinger is correct here...and at least one early Avanti ll (with the round sticker) was sold....probably more. A good example of this is on the front cover of 'AVANTI MAGAZINE' Issue 141, 2008 Answer....FALSE!
