  • TheAvanti.Com website is back online!

    The Avanti.com website was created nearly 20 years ago by Arlington, Virginia member Richard Gallatin, who mapped the history of the Avanti, from conception to pop culture. Following Richard’s death in March 2017, we’ve recreated this great resource for all Studebaker and Avanti fans. The site also includes a comprehensive registry and technical info. The site was originally created with a dot.com website address, but mostly recently used a dot.net domain after someone in Romania highjacked the original domain. The site went offline sometime last March.

    It's back now under the original web address: www.theavanti.com with a wealth of history, pop culture, and nearly 1,000 separate pages of Studebaker models, cars and trucks, and Everything Avanti.

    Enjoy!

        Thanks, Milt... Huge job. Richard has built nearly 1,000 pages for his website, counting all the pop-up windows that give additional information for many of the pages.

            Really fun reading the road tests back in 62-63. One, which compared & contrasted the Avanti, Corvette, Buick Rivera and T'Bird, was particularly interesting. Another mentioned the Avanti's speedo was waay optimistic. I have noticed for years the Hawk speedos were usually 10-20 percent high, but ASSumed it was because the hair spring had became weak with age. Not likely the case in 62-63.

            Thanks Lew !
