NCReatta Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 So my grandfather sold a large building he had in Kittrell, NC, and subsequently put up a new building on his property just south of Oxford NC. The Kittrell building has been home to some of his cars for the past few years. A '63 Studebaker Avanti R-2 4-speed, a '67 Glen Pray replica Cord 8/10, And a Samco cord. All had to be moved by this weekend. So we loaded up the e-150 and the tilt bed car trailer and headed out. The cars had been sitting for about 6 or 8 years, so naturally they were pretty dirty. They sure cleaned up nice though! Here are some pictures after bath and in their new home: Oh and I managed to pick up another Reatta today.

KDirk Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Very nice! Love the Cord's, still not sure what to make of the Avanti though. It is a different looking car for sure. KDirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also got another '63 R-2 4-speed (red too) with a lot of R-3 performance parts on it.. Plus a '87 convertible. He's been into Avantis since the late 60s.. If you are in the market for another one, he may have one for sale!My apologies, Kerry. I will check on that tomorrow. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
