Avanti #WordlessWednesday

At a car show earlier this month, I saw a car make I had never heard of.

Avanti.

Here are two views of the car. 

 It was the headlights that grabbed my attention.

 

I was so taken I never looked at the registration sticker to see the year information.  After I got home, I looked Avanti up online and found that it is the descendant of a Studebaker model.  Even after Studebaker ceased to exist (1963 in the United States and 1966 in Canada), others continued to produce various iterations.

I don't think this is an original Studebaker Avanti but I don't know what it is.  Hopefully one of my car loving readers can help.  To me, it's a beautiful car.

  2. The dentist I had in my youth owned an Avanti. Not that I can remember what it looked like. My Dad had a '52 Studebaker.

  5. I've not heard of it either. I don't remember my parents having Studebakers, but apparently they had two at one time. I was too young to remember.

  10. When Mom was growing up, the neighbors had an Avanti that they loved totally. Mom had no idea about cars at the time.
