Final List of Cars for the 2014 Season of My Classic Car

I just pulled the Avanti out of the garage yesterday. Like most of the threads state on here a lot of times show cars don't have perfect paint. It's hard to keep on the paint with all the little mechanical tinkering that can be done.
A little History on the Avanti
-The Avanti was designed by Raymond Lowey- Famous industrial designer who designed the Coke Bottle, Shell Gasoline logo, Post office Logo and Lucky Strike Cigarette package, Air Force 1, Zippo Lighter to name a few
-It was the First Mass produced 4 seat fiberglass car
-63 and 64 were made by Studebaker, but specialty builders kept it in production into the 80's with a few reincarnations in the 90's and early 2000's
-James Bond Author Ian Fleming Drove a Black 1963 Avanti
- In the 60's Avanti's broke 29 Bonneville Land Speed Records
The Avanti has one of those styling features that some either love or don`t.For those who don`t give it another chance and it will grow on you.I remember seeing them as a kid in the 60`s and quickly recognizing them as being cool and bold in design.The Tucker was different as well with the moving third headlight.Like the saying goes"THEY DONT MAKE UM LIKE THAT ANYMORE"!!!
