Yeah, but Avanti-176,
They cheated on that 196-mph run...they bolted on a full belly pan and changed tires...NOT FAIR!
Seriously, I was in college at the time, and lusted after one. I remember drooling over the poster at the Studebaker dealer that showed that record-setting performance...almost committed a crime just for the poster! Classy cars!
