Have a few questions regarding the 1963 Avanti. I know everyone has their own opinions so I'm looking for both input and answers....
In my search for a 63 avanti over the last few years my findings have been slim..
Is it worth the wait to continue my search for a driveable/show able avanti or should I dive into a project avanti which so many people say is a disaster waiting to happen?
What is the availability on 63 avanti parts? I found some on eBay and miscellaneous sites, but is there enough sources out there to restore an avanti?
Are there special tools needed when pulling the body from the frame on a car that has frame/torque box issues?
What does it cost to have the dash redone and why do so many people dread a cracked dash or having it replaced?
I know I can handle the mechanical end of the car, and I have a friend that runs a business and has the ability to do frame work but it would still leave me with interior, body/paint work to be sourced out.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that has these questions but just trying to gather more info on my end and clarify some points before I choose one way or the other.
