mfg Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 After Studebaker sold it, 'Bonneville Avanti #9' was raced again at Bonneville by Bill Burke as 'Bonneville Avanti #90......True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEEPNHOCK Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) False The number ( Avanti #9 and the #90 Avanti were two different cars ). That #90 Avanti had over a dozen paint schemes on it over the years, one of which was the Torco paint scheme with #90 in the window.. The Burke Avanti was later sold to David Parris in North Carolina. It is getting updated (with 259 Stude power) to continue land speed racing. I know where the Burke Avanti is currently residing.http://www.hotrod.com/articles/bill-burkes-historic-studebaker-avanti/[/img] Edited March 10, 2017 by DEEPNHOCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
