I like Avantis and I like this photo. If I were to have taken it, I'd wish that the far left complete circle of the headlight ring was in the frame (it looks slightly cut off).

I always go gaga over this car and built an AMT plastic model of it when a child. I think you've captured the essence of it's beautiful front end styling and the nameplate is beautiful.

LX, M50/1.4 (I forget what f-stop it was actually at).


Very nice! The Avanti was always a favorite of mine too, just like the Studebaker Hawk. Same designer, Raymond Loewy or something like that.
