Vehicle Detail

Nice driver quality 65 Corvair Corsa convertible. Runs and drives great. Please watch the two videos. One is a walk around and the other is the car driving. The car can be used everyday without doing anything except changing the tires. You will get lots of comments like "did you restore it" and "I had one but it didn't look that nice" (just a few I heard this week). The car looks great at first glance but closer examination will reveal flaws. If you just want a nice daily driver or weekend cruiser then this is perfect. If you want a show car then it will need some work making it perfect. I would not hesitate to drive this anywhere. I am pretty critical of cars and it may sound like I am really downplaying the car but I just to make sure you have a good understanding of what you are bidding on. Nothing worse that being disappointed with a big purchase. Whoever wins this car is getting a very solid car that they can start using and enjoying right away. Pros-New top a few years ago, still very nice.Rear window clear and scratch free. Doors open and close nice, no sagging.Just replaced seal between the top and the windshield.Solid body and chassis.Solid floors.Runs great.Nice interior.No leaks, garage floor nice and clean still. All lights and signals work (including warning lights).Clear title.Original owners manual.Starts easily on the first try.Shifts good. Cons-Poor quality paint job. Bodywork appears that it was not done professionally. Car looks good as a driver quality but to be show worthy it would need attention.Tires are old and should be replacedBrakes pull to the left when pressed hard (possibly a sticky caliper)Smokes a little under very hard acceleration ( car sat for a while and I have only driven it about 200 miles so I think just using it more will help)Dash needs paint in places.Original AM radio not working (does come with another radio that was working when I bought the car but I thought it was ugly so I took it out)Originally would have been a 140hp engine, now a 110hp dual carb single exhaustTachometer, temp gauge and clock not working.Steering shutters a bit at high speed (65mph and more), likely due to old tires. Steering is not as tight as it should be. Likely just old bushings Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I can take more pictures of anything that you need to see better. I know it can be hard bidding on a car without seeing it in person which is why I included the videos. I encourage you to view the car in person. If needed I can deliver the car to a local mechanic of your choosing for closer inspection. You would be responsible for all costs. $500 non-refundable deposit required within 48 hours of auctions end. I am only human and I can not possibly list every single detail about the car but if you find that the car has been grossly misrepresented your deposit will be refunded and the sale will be canceled. It is a good honest car and I know the buyer is going to happy with their purchase. I can store the car in my heated garage for a few weeks if needed as long as 50% payment is received.

The old ones were cracked pretty bad as you can see in the videos. I did not feel comfortable letting anyone drive it home with those tires. Now these will last for another 40,000 miles and best of all you and the car will be safe.
