Does anyone have a piece of the front script from an Avanti that they would be willing to part with cheaply? It can be in any condition - pitted, broken, whatever. Actually, I would prefer one that has the mounting posts broken off (They used mounting posts on this script, right?), as I would be breaking them off myself.
Some of you may remember the Avanti bed project I designed and built for my son (because no other sports car bed is as good as a Studebaker sports car bed!) For ages, the thing sat unpainted in his room, good enough to sleep in, but not done. Over the last few days though, we've got all the painting done except for one tire (which I'll be doing tomorrow). I even put together a "wiring harness" for the thing:
I rigged a couple of inexpensive tap lights to a switch which I mounted on the bed, so now he has headlights he can turn on and off right from bed. But, looking at the front, I feel like a little Studebaker bling would really finish it off.
So if anyone has a piece of front script, let me know. Like I said, condition isn't a concern. If I have to sand down the pits and spray paint it with fake chrome, I'm fine with that.
I'll post some completed pics of this very cool bed once I finish the last tire
