Lazy S's

[IdahoBen]

I have a 63 Avanti.   I have two sets of Lazy S's.  One set is silver and the other is gold letters,   Which is correct for the 63 Avanti?

It depends on your car's serial number.  Earlier '63 Avantis came with a gold "S" and later '63s came with a silver one.  I don't know the serial number at which Studebaker changed from gold to silver, but someone does.

I have no documentation to support this, but I recall seeing early round light Studebaker Avanti‘s with a gold ‘S’ on the hood, and silver ‘S’s’ on the cars earmuffs!

Don't know if helpful, but the parts book shows that the hood ornament, including insert, changed at serial number 4879.
