ATTN: I just realized that the pictures are really small. So I took a few with my good camera to allow for better viewing. let me know if you want to see anything else. 1963 panel 95 Corvair van. this van is a rare survivor. it was bought originally at the Chevrolet dealership in Sonoma, Ca. it was bought by the Valley of the Moon Fire Department. it was the Boyes Hot Springs fire vehicle. the hose and ladder transportation vehicle. it was retired in 1982 with 51,000 original miles on it. it was taken to the county storage yard for a few years where then it was bought by a junk yard. the drivetrain was removed and it was too nice to scrap so they sold it to my friend Max. he has had it since the late 1980's (he is up there in years and can't remember the exact year) I bought his lot of vans (2) and greenbriers (2) and am not in the process of bringing one of them back to life and moving the other 4 back out into the collectible / restoring world. I will tell you everything I know about the vehicle and you will know if it is a fit for you or not. as stated above there is no drive-train, the glass is perfect, there is virtually no rust anywhere on the inside or the outside, the body has a few bumps and bruises, but nothing that can't be cleaned up relatively easy. see the pictures for a better idea of that. mainly the passenger side near the bottom of the doors has some denting that will need to be tended to, but no a big deal. it has sat for many years and is in need of a complete overhaul. these are rare vans and look amazing when back not he road, whether fully restored or just cleaned up and running. this car will come with a California bill of sale, and it is long out of the DMV system. there are no keys for this one, they were misplaced. ask any questions you may have on the van and I will be happy to answer you back right away.there are a few mounting holes in the roof where the light bars and rack were. you can still make out "019" on the doors which was the fire department number and faintly along the side is "Valley of the moon Fire Department" along the drivers side. this van also features the super rare split front seat with a full folding passenger seat. worth about as much as my starting price for the whole van.
