Avanti II – Enter a world of limitless time. As each body is created, a chassis is being built-up . . . with every component assembled and added by hand, for it is the hands of man, that make the difference. Power tools and automation cannot duplicate the concern for detail that is transmitted from the mind of man, to his fingertips. Picture if you will, 114 fiberglass components, assembled with such care that it will take some ninety hours to prepare a raw body for painting. Once prepared, ten coats of lacquer, with hand sanding between each coat, is applied . . . producing a body so perfect, it is impossible to tell it from steel. As hands lift and mate body to chassis, others are preparing the interior appointments. Underfoot, one may select from the finest in decorator carpeting, both "shag" and "plush." Glove soft leathers, imported suedes, the finest in fabrics, wools and luxurious crushed velvets . . . assembled from the four corners of the world, are being cut and hand sewn, producing the last word in interior design. Upon completion, each Avanti II is water-tested and broken-in at the factory, until the finished product is as perfect as the hands of man can make it. In a world where sameness is a way of life, Avanti II is a masterpiece . . . a limited addition, produced each year for a handful of individuals . . . men and women that appreciate the ultimate in "the state of the motoring art." Words cannot describe or do justice to the "experience" that awaits the fortunate few that will make this, their year to enter Avanti's world!
