Mark L Posted August 17 Report Share Posted August 17 (edited) Indianapolis 500 winner Rodger Ward's Avanti R1 is now up for auction on Bring A Trailer. This is the one he requested instead of the R2 that Studebaker originally planned to give the winner of the Indianapolis 500. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1963-studebaker-avanti-61/ If owning just any 1963 Avanti is not enough, this one is even more special.

aardvark Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 (edited) As said.. I don't think the prior ownership played much into the price. Ward is a somewhat unknown to the General Public and the Pix';s were 62 years ago. I'm routinely seeing 63-64's in VGC selling at or near that price range.... Good for me, since I bought in cheap and it's jst been in the last few years, that these cars have been coming up in price. Now., If this Boys car comes up "For Sale.. add $20k. ALICE !!
