wrenchhead ◊ 2007-02-15 18:21	Early avantis were Studebaker. Studebaker went out of buisness but the name, molds etc were sold and production continued under the Avanti name but they were not Studebakers. I can't tell one from the other. This one- -- Last edit: 2007-02-15 18:23:14

Avanti IIs did not have those. It also looks to be the correct Studebaker "Avanti red" color. So I'd say its a Studebaker with aftermarket wheels.
bobmony ◊ 2016-03-19 19:25	You can tell by the slim upper front fender - the part over the wheel well - that it is a Studebaker and not an Avanti II, as that part appears thicker on the AVANTI II due to reduction of wheel well size on the later cars.
