1964 Studebaker Avanti – Alice Cooper’s Car
Celebrity Owned Avanti
1964 Studebaker Avanti RestoMod: Now here is an interesting automobile that was owned and upgraded by Alice Cooper. Its a 1964 Studebaker Avanti and its powered with a Corvette LT-1 engine with an Automatic Overdrive transmission connected to a classic Lokar shifter. This car runs and drives very well and will simply light up the tires with a push of the throttle, should you have the need and desire to do so. It also has functioning A/C provided by Vintage Air, along with a nice digital screen display audio system. Power windows were added, as well as upgraded Autometer gauges.
The Corvette LT-1 engine was tuned by Arizona TPI and produces 320-hp, which certainly gives the car commanding power. The Avanti’s exhaust has a very pleasing growl to it and folks will know when you are arriving. This upgrade was done by Alice himself.
T
his Avanti drives very nicely down the road straight and true, it brakes properly and effortlessly. This car is c
ertainly not perfect, however its a blast to own and drive. The current owner is extremely meticulous about every detail and pride of ownership clearly shows throughout.
1963-64 Avanti’s are rare in itself, however a nice added feature is being celebrity owned and upgraded to modern driving conveniences. Give me a call on this one.
