Pretty specific things your looking for. I suggest You scan thru the ones for sale here.

Looks like the majority of 1987+ are convertibles? That's really the only deal breaker. Life is complicated enough without having a convertible. In Texas it is so hot you can only put the top down a few months of the year without baking alive.

Then You probably need to spread Your search out to other years and options.

I've bought 2 Avanti's over a Years Time. My needs here are far different than Texas... for sure.

One I bought off of Hemmings and it was advertised elsewhere as well.. the other came from this site.

Still looking for an 87? My father passed away in Southern Missouri near Arkansas border last summer and we dont want to bring his back to Wisconsin. It's on a Chevy chassis and not a convertible. Red. Needs woodgrain interior on dash and counsel repaired or replaced and a little work on ceiling. He drove it down there from Wisconsin when he moved 15 years ago. Looks like it also needs work on the fiberglass hood. I believe it's under 100,000 miles. We need to get the wheels back on after replacing a caliper next time we are down there from Wisconsin, probably late this month or early November.

He had 6 cars total, and we've managed to get 3 out of there and driven back to Wisconsin, 3 left to go. Which is why the Avanti hasn't been started but he had notes all over the house to start the Avanti so I know he kept it in driving condition with notes on oil change miles, etc. Let me know if you're interested, and I could dig up the pics I have and take more when I'm down there next. It could be a great winter project! I had a cousin want to buy it to build a rat rod and I'm like using an Avanti?? I just can't condone that lol. Thanks!

Sorry, don't know why I didn't get an email stating I had a response, probably because it wasn't my post but someone else's post I responded to. The car is in Alton, so I guess 3 hours away from Branson. I did leave my number. Thanks.
