Nelson Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 How many different horn buttons were used on Avantis 1963 thru 1964 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) I'm tempted to say one..however I know of a button with larger STUDEBAKER CORPORATION print...just not sure if it was ever used on a production Avanti. So, my guess is one! Edited January 9, 2023 by mfg Added text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 No. More than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunslinger Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 There was a first one that was seen in early Avanti promo ads and brochures. I don't know whether it ever made into production cars...but if it did it must have been very few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwight FitzSimons Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 I will guess two, the small-font one and the large-font one, with the large-font one being used later. --Dwight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Well the next guess will be three. It’s been years ago but I had all of them collected and probably still do. My memory is foggy but there were at least three different ones. You would never notice at first glance but the difference are significant and mostly in the wording. I wonder if the three (or more) are listed separately in the parts manual? I’m not home to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfg Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 By the way, I like tbe look of the 'LARGE PRINT' Studebaker Avanti horn button, so I ordered one several years ago and installed it in my '63. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
