1964 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible. VIN# 40967W272901. Rare Power Top that works well. Car is in very good condition, drives straight at interstate speeds with no shimmy and runs great. Mechanically very sound and dependable worry-free driver, everything on the car works as it should both mechanically and electrically. Nothing worse than driving a classic car and fearing every time you stop at a light the car will stall. No surprises or trailer-darling here, this car is ready to drive! I purchased the car 4 years ago and replaced the gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, had both carbs professionally rebuilt, new battery, rebuilt generator, new coil, distributor, wires, plugs, installed an AM\FM\CD\IPod Stereo (hidden in the glove box and closes as normal), 4 wheel brake job, lowered the frontend an inch for a better look and drive (no clearance issues), installed 4 new shocks, fixed power top and added rear seat seat-belts for safety. Solid floors and trunk, no visible rust on exterior of car. Interior in great shape with no tears or fading in seats, door panels or carpets. Convertible top in excellent condition with no tears, cracking or fading. Convertible top window clear and not yellowed, cracked or brittle. Replaced both front and rear bumpers and bumper guards with high-quality replacements with a great chrome shine. 14” tires also in great shape with very good tread and never lose air. Rims in OK condition with minimal pitting, but shine up nicely. Glass in good shape all around, few small chips in windshield, but none spidered\spreading or impeding view. Car always garaged in heated garage. Automatic transmission that you shift from the On-Dash gear selector works perfectly with no issues. Parking\Emergency brake works great. Dual Snorkel air cleaner non-stock for model, but feel it’s a better look. Paint in very good condition with good shine and looks great. Working odometer on car shows 14,541K miles, but unsure of actual miles as title doesn't show “in-excess” or state mileage of last transfer. Assuming 114K miles, but with a Convertible up-North, unsure. Runs very smooth with good power, no smoke and always starts right up and never stalls. Have Owners Manual, Service Manual, Convertible Top Cover, Car Cover and other small misc parts that will go with car. A true classic convertible that turns heads without breaking the budget! I’ve decided to sell because with 3 young kids, my priorities have changed for now and simply don’t have time to drive it like I should. Full Disclosure Issues- Slight oil leak when sitting as common with Corvairs, but minimal. Small dent on top driver’s side quarter, smaller than the size of quarter (see Pic). Previous owner did cut rear door panels to install speakers (I would never do) but at least they did a nice job. Front panels in tact and stock. Speakers look good and sound great. Clear Illinois Title- I spent most of time repairing car to be road worthy and never titled in Nebraska. My intention was to register the “Classic YOM Plates” as seen on car and never got around to it (lengthy process). Have clear Illinois title and valid signed bill of sale from previous owner and myself. Payment due within 7 days of sale and car will not ship without full and cleared payment, no exceptions. Buyer responsible for pickup and\or any shipping charges. Bid with confidence, but please only bid on the car if you intend to buy it. The car is for sale and will sell to the highest bidder. I know I'd be leery of buying a car online, so I welcome onsite inspections during the auction from buyers or buyer’s agents, but when the auction end, the sale is final. Also, please message me for any additional information or questions and I'll do my best to answer. If requested, I can also provide my mobile number. Back in '08 I sold a 1968 Camaro for just over $25K and the buyer left feedback as the transaction being an 11 on a scale of 1-10. Please check my feedbacks over the years.My reserve is well below the NADA “Average Retail” of the car and by no means would I classify this as “an average 1964 Corvair Convertible”. Reserve also far below Hagerty's "lowest condition scale of 4". I would scale the car between a 2 and 3. My reserve is below these values as I'm ready to sell the car. Summer is nearly here, time to get into a classic ragtop and go topless! On Apr-04-14 at 20:48:32 PDT, seller added the following information: I had a question about the engine, to thought I would update. The engine code on my Corvair ends in "ZF" which is the Auto Transmission- HPE (High Performance Engine) model. For the "Hegarty Value" they only listed the lower 95HP model, so I used this. But again this is the higher performance engine. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!
