My suspicion is that the car is not the original color (or paint job for that matter). I would like to know for certain. Thanks.Howard - Los Angeles chapter SDC

I think Howard was hoping that someone for historical purposes had gone through the Avanti production orders and had the information at hand. In the past, my question about my 55 speedster was answered even to the point of delivery in Danube MN. I also got information that my car has the 8.0 heads that were an option. When I did finally get my production order, it was confirmed that my car did have the original engine. It is still in 10,000 pieces but slowing I have fewer piece missing.

Bob is correct. Since the car isn't mine (it belongs to a friend) I would like to know, but I'm not ready to spend $40 to find out. CASO I guess .Howard - Los Angeles chapter SDC

Unless it had a first class, really high $ repaint there should be areas that didn't get painted. Look behind things and under things for a different paint.Don Wilson, Centralia, WA
