Unique Avanti!

[mfg]

Besides the leather grained saddle tan vinyl interior, what other interior appointment in Bob Doehler's '64 Avanti differed from regular production?

1) Console knobs.....2) Steering Wheel......3) Headliner.....or.....4) Unique simulated woodgrain material on dash/console

Console knobs?

#2, steering wheel. If I remember correctly, it was a 'sample' wheel provided by the supplier for Studebaker to evaluate.

Is that the same style of wheel in John Hora's Avanti #9?   (Photo of steering wheel here:  https://forum.studebakerdriversclub.com/forum/your-studebaker-forum/general-studebaker-specific-discussion/32366-granatelli-takes-3-avantis-to-bonneville/page2?31561-Granatelli-takes-3-Avantis-to-Bonneville-(-)=&highlight=granatelli )
