I was 14 when this '63 Avanti hit the streets. I owned a 1964 Studebaker Lark in 1971, and it was one of the best and most reliable cars I've ever owned. Studebaker was ahead of it's time, but the world hadn't caught up yet.

Loved it! You can definitely hear that whistle of the Supercharger. And no music in the background that I appreciate. Great video of a unbelievably advanced car for 1963.

My avanti story. I'm 8 years old .a friend of my father's that was a salesman at the local studebaker dealership. He calls my dad up and says hey Kenny come over and see this new studebaker I think you will like it. Dad and I loaded up and went to see this new studebaker. When we got there I saw the most beautiful car I had ever seen. My dad and his friend loaded up in the car with me begging to go with

I bought an R1 from the original owner in 1986. In the 11 years I owned the car it turned heads where ever it was, a real star of classic cars. I once drove from OC California to San Diego and it ran tight and fast round trip. Sold the beauty to pay for restoration of my 1966 427 Corvette,

In those days, car manufacturers actually gave you features TO like.For example, the lovely chromed controls, elegantly positioned for both style, and function, simultaneously. Chance would be a fine thing, nowadays!

Studebaker's best. At least 20 years ahead of its time.

Beautiful! dazzling car and what a nice ride too! The thing about Studebaker Automakers is that they had unconventional model designs, that were far different from Ford, Mopar, or even General Motors. Personally! this car should have had a grill in front, but that's only my opinion. Thank you! for this great memorable presentation! Johnny Montréal Canada.

my brother had a 63 avanti with r4? engine, q 289 with twin paxton superchargers. the speedo said 160 mph. we got it up to 140, but had to get out of it, the car was 12 yrs old at the time and couldnt keep it on the road safely. but it was one hell of a car !
