Vehicle Detail
1965 Chevrolet Greenbrier Chevrolet built this 6 door “Sportwagon” like all the Corvair’s in its lineup with an air cooled 6cyl engine. Produced between 1961 and 1965 this is # 1203 of the final production run of 1528 and delivered in December of ’64 This van has been restored to a point that it is reliable, safe and EYE CATCHINGPurchased 5 years ago in Colorado, the van was plastic bead blasted to bare metal and 48 years of beauty marks massaged out. I found 5 coats of paint but thankfully only 1 rust spot that was repaired properly with metal. The seats were rebuilt with modern materials and the table (non-factory) kept for the retro look. Interior upgrades are: Factory front bucket seats, full carpet kit, and seat belts for forward facing passengers. Exterior upgrades: Colour matched powder coated rallye wheels with correct diameter 215-65-15 radial tires. The original van engine block was converted into a 140HP 4 carb with progressive throttle linkage. True dual exhaust including ceramic coated headers. 3.27 diff and factory 4 speed rebuilt and resealed. The extra HP & torque get this vehicle up to speed quickly and the lower gear ratio (stock is 3.89) allow you to cruise all day at modern highway speeds.Also included with the van are the original 110 HP heads, three FC gas heaters in various states of assembly plus any and all corvair parts I have including spare axles, lights, front grill that all came with the van. For those of you residing in the US, this vehicle is an easy import as it originated in the US and is over 25 years old. My last two corvairs are now American citizens and the buyer had no issues crossing the border. I will assist in delivery as best I can and willing to even meet at the border near Buffalo NY
