Avanti Convertible" Rear Shell" Available

Recommended Posts

There is a fella in Louisville Kentucky that has the remains of what I believe was a "Villa Rica Georgia" Avanti Convertible body. What's there is bare fiberglass, and he bought it in Georgia and had it shipped to Louisville. The usable piece that remains is the floorboard from approximately the fire wall back. The rear fenders are there, the trunk floor is there. the trunk lid is not there. The piece between the top edge of the trunk lid to the bottom of the rear window opening is there. The metal support pieces inside the door jams are there. My limited knowledge regarding Avanti Convertibles, says the rear fenders etc. on this body are unique to Avanti Convertibles.

I post this only to try and find a good home for this piece of what I believe to be a unique body. It can be had CHEAP. If someone is interested...........contact me, and I'll give you the contact information for the owner and step back. There is nothing in it for me.

John, it's folks like you that make this a great hobby. Thanks for doing this! :)

Thanks . IF I owned a convertible, I'd be all over this as cheap insurance against some doofus texting while driving and hitting the rear end of my convertible. Where are you going to get the unique convertible body parts?

The description leads me to believe that the parts are for an earlier convertible (Ohio, not Georgia).

You might very well be correct. I profess no knowledge of Avanti convertibles aside from the Florida Prototype, which I watched being built.

As I stated this body was purchased by the owner in Georgia and he had it shipped to his home in Louisville, where it sits today in his backyard on the ground.

Regardless of the year, this is cheap insurance for an Avanti convertible owner, in my opinion.
