I think it looks bad ***! I love the old and new Avanti's!
My buddy in high school and all his brothers had old Studebakers
that they rebuilt, so I've always liked this car.

What's even more amazing is that someone would actually bid $40K for that thang. Might have one advantage though......no self respecting dog would pee on it.

Taken from the ad..
The power of a 5.6L V8 is something that can't be described, you have to feel it for yourself.

Whats so wrong with that? I think the LS1 is an amazing motor, and it can't be described However, the car is pretty ugly.. Neat.. but ugly.


Peace,
