1969 Studebaker Avanti Test Drive
Studebaker was long gone by 1969, but its sporting Avanti lived on. South Bend dealers Leo Newman and Nate Altman acquired manufacturing rights in 1965 and began building the “Avanti II” as a limited edition luxury GT with Corvette running gear and detail styling changes. Base price was $7145 in 1969, when 103 cars were produced. Production would continue through the 1980s.
