This is a very special Corvair. I puchased the car several years ago from a dealership, as it had been a trade in. I suspect that whoever had this super restoration done probably passed and whoever inhertied the car didn't know what it was. This car is totally professionally rebuilt from top to bottom. Every part of the car is like brand new, ie wiring, lights, chrome, engine, tranny, interior, underbody, trunk, engine compartment, the more you look, the better it gets.. There is not one spec of rust anywhere, no body dings, suspension is outstanding, tranmission is tight, and the motor runs very will, with th 4 carb setup (this is a 1965 engine) I had the carbs rebuilt by a long time dedicated Corvair mechanic in Black Mountain NC and he fixed the gas tank float while he had it. I also replaced both rear axel bearings with rebuilt units from Clarks Corvair. Other than that, I've driven to NC to have the title validated with there investigation which is required on all cars over 15 years old. This is to verify that the car wasn't stolen, rebuilt,, kit car, etc and mine passed just fine. The trip added over 1,000 miles to the car and it was a very nice ride, especially with the cruise control. The car probably started out life as a Monza, but is now Spydered as far as badging and dash. As stated the engine is the 1965 140hp model, the seats are cloth from some other car, the tilting steering wheel with the cruise paddle is out of a later model Chevy. Look at the pictures, they really show the quality of this car, especially take not of the trunk and the dual master cylinder , boosted brake job. No one I've talked to has seen this in a Corvair. And the attention given to the engine bay, it is a work of art itself. Power top works perfectly and there is a white boot cover, but I don't use it as I put the top up and down a lot. This car needs absolutely nothing, it's perfect as it is. So if you buy it, just drive it and change the oil.
