1976 Avanti II

Sadly selling my 1976 Avanti II. I am remodeling my garage to add a film studio and I need the room (and cash) to finish my new venture.

The Avanti really is one of the original Muscle Cars. It’s unique classic design makes the car a real “head turner”.

I have owned and enjoyed this beautiful car for 5 years, and have done many upgrades/repairs and do have the receipts.

Car is in perfect running condition. It has been always garaged, babied, and lightly driven to keep it in top shape.

I have the original “Build Sheet”, which shows it was built in June of 1976 and shipped out in June of 1977. Car was probably used as a demo before it was sold. I also have the Owner’s Manual and the Operating Manual for the Moon Roof.

- 400 cu. in. “short-block” Chevy engine.
