These drawings are signed by Raymond Loewy and dated 1978. Raymond Loewy's ideas for redesigning the Avanti in his own words: " If I were to redesign the Avanti today, I would keep it much the same."

(Ed. note: Despite Loewy's considerable reputation as the Avanti's designer all of these ideas would have ruined the Avanti) I might, however, emphasize the off center treatment and place two fog lights into the headlight cluster (on the drivers side). The body could be a bit wider and lower, designed to accept wider tires. The face of the instrument panel would be white and the pointers black for better readability. The exhaust system needs improvement. The windshield wipers could disappear under the cowl. Better sunvisors are essential.The air-cooling system needs study. The engine compartment air-intake could be redesigned for better efficiency. A spoiler might be desirable. I would reduce the width of the A pillar (front windshield pillar) to a minimum to reduce blind area.
