I used to drive one similar to that, but an older model.  That looks about 10 years newer than what I drove.

It would seem that it would be loud in the cabin.

The corvair was built for autocross, not the street

The Avanti was a unique automobile.  If I remember correctly, they were produced by order.  Whenever ordering one, you got to order them the old fashioned way.  You didn't order bundles of options.  I had heard you ordered each option individually.  If you wanted an armrest, you had to order it.  If you wanted one on the other side, you had to order it.  One sun visor or two?

Found your Avanti:

The seats are very low.  Much sounded good, until he got to those dopey-looking rear wheels.  Spinners?  People still use those?  It sounds like an onboxious-mobile.

The description says manual but picture 11 looks like an auto shifter.

Just where in Eatonton is the display of cars.  Go thru there a lot but have not seen it

113 Scott Rd, Eatonton, GA 31024

Open Sat & Sun.

If you're heading south from I-20, go past Georgia Butts BBQ.  Next real right turn (There's some sort of fast food place at the corner). 
Drive about a mile and Memory Lane is on your right.  Looks like a strip mall.

Greensboro exit off I-20, Hwy 44.  Go south, cross the lake and start looking on the right.  It's the first road.
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Looks like I have gone on both sides of it.  Usually on 441 and never know eatonton went that far down

Coming out of Greensboro on 44, when you cross the lake bridge it changes from Greene County, Greensboro to Putnam County, Eatonton.  Hwy 44 goes on down and runs into Hwy 16 just outside Eatonton.  The Memory Lane Museum is north of Eatonton toward Greensboro and just across the lake from Reynolds Plantation.
