Avanti Turns Twenty!

[mfg]

When the Avanti automobile turned twenty years old, a large celebration, attended by 150 Avanti enthusiasts, was held in Marina Del Ray, California. A highlight of this special event were speeches by three of the invited guests...........Andy, Joe, and Vincent Granatelli......True?

I'll say false-pretty sure it was 3 members of the Studebaker Avanti design team-Raymond Loewy,Bob Andrews,and Tom Kellogg.

Murph, false is indeed the CORRECT answer,  but not for the reason you mention.....(You may be thinking of the Avanti design team reunion that was held in South Bend.)

The reason the answer is false is although Joe and Vince Granatelli were at the California Avanti anniversary and gave speeches, Andy WAS NOT THERE  due to having prior commitments.
