There's a convertible Avanti in our neighborhood. I haven't seen it for a while, it must be hibernating until the snow melts.

I can see why. A car in that nice of a shape deserves to be kept away from the snow. Does it look that good in person?

It's pretty clean, but based on kb's link I see it could be as late a model as 1991, and might not even qualify as an antique.

Yeah. If I had to make a completely wild guess, I'd say that one kind of looks like a mid '70s one if you ask me. It looks like it's rocking a 5mph bumper that become a requirement back in '70s. If you check out a 1973 Camaro and compare it to a 1974 Camaro you can see how the bumper designs changed. The bumper on the car you posted is painted to match the rest of the body, which was something that you started to see on cars later in the decade like the 1977 Camaro.
