mfg Posted July 13, 2019 Report Posted July 13, 2019 What's notable about 1963 Studebaker Avanti 63R1325?
lschuc Posted July 30, 2019 Report Posted July 30, 2019 Not sure, other than it was the 325th Avanti produced. Last was owned by a former member, inactive since 2006, in Dixon, Illinois.
63R1388 Posted August 1, 2019 Report Posted August 1, 2019 Might it be the first car body assembled by Stude factory...? Instead of by MFG?
Gunslinger Posted August 1, 2019 Report Posted August 1, 2019 I'll take a SWAG...the first Avanti with a 160 mph speedometer?
1963r2 Posted August 1, 2019 Report Posted August 1, 2019 11 hours ago, Gunslinger said: I'll take a SWAG...the first Avanti with a 160 mph speedometer? Maybe but my R2 (1499) has a 140 mph speedo. Unless it was changed at some point. Pb
mfg Posted August 3, 2019 Author Report Posted August 3, 2019 ANSWER....Great thoughts!, however, 63R1325's true claim to fame is actually a bit obscure!.......The R1 engine in this Avanti was the last one 'Old Man Salay' rebuilt in South Bend before he passed away.
