'63 Studebaker Avanti (Supercharged)

Release Date: October 2007

Cast Number: 962

Lurking under the Avanti's beautiful skin was a 289 cid. blown V-8, capable of recording 0-60 times in the low-7's. The elegant Avanti represented the first completely new body style from Studebaker since 1953. Smooth lines and an undulating coke-bottle shape were hallmarks of the fiberglass body. Another unique feature was the hidden, under-the-bumper grille. We've graced this model with an Avanti Gray Metallic finish, and given it new disk rims with thin white stripe tires.
