Looked at that one. Pretty rough. Not an avanti engine. Looks to be 2 bbl something or other. No 160 speedo. Likely was originally R1.

Nothing more expensive than a cheap Avanti (John Poulous)

Unless you are working on Speedster or Golden Hawk. All jesting aside, this one needs lots of help.
The S/C has JTS pulley. It also has 64 nose and by body/serial number is early 63 not 64. Sure is missing a lot of parts. I have purchased better ones for about half the price.

As much as I like Avantis, IMHO, the value is just not there.

Think they could have posted older pix? Who knows what it looks like today!!!

[64studeavanti]

Noticed that also
Most of the pictures are dated 2003. The last one is 2017. You can readily see how badly the steering wheel has fared. The years have not been kind.

Good catch, considering the place it's resting in the recent pictures, I'd really like a look at the underside. I looked at one a few years back that was resting in a similar position and the frame and hog troughs crumbled in my hand when I reached underneath. Bob

Looks like someone bought it. If it was anyone on the forum i can provide most of the missing parts including a correct R1 engine and Power Shift trans.

Someone got a good deal. I see $6000 worth of parts at a glance.

It's back on ebay for $4000.
