studegary Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Without looking it up, 34 strikes me as the correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 29 speed records were set at Bonneville in the summer of '62 by Andy G. (& team) in the red Avanti that the following year would re-appear at Bonneville as the 'Due Cento'. The 34 speed records were set by Andy G. in '63 in a completely different Avanti, the gold #9 car. Edited March 9, 2017 by mfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
