Nope, that's not it! (I believe you are thinking of Avanti R4130....which was the PROTOTYPE for the '64 Avanti styling changes)

No, I wasn't thinking of that one.  I was referring to the actual production 1964 Avanti.

Then you were thinking of R4892....The first 'production' Studebaker Avanti with 'MOST' of the 1964 styling changes.
