1965 Corvair Greenbrier 6 Door Van, 4 Spd on 2040-cars
Brampton, Ontario, Canada
|
1965 Chevrolet 6 door “Sportwagon” with an air cooled 6cy engine mated to a 4 speed mannual trans. 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 CATCHING. Purchased 5 years ago in Colorado, the van was bead blasted and 48 years of beauty marks were removed before repainting in the colors shown. 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 (photos show before carpet & buckets which were added this summer), remote audio system, seat belts for forward facing passengers, hidden 8 speaker, three amp stereo system with USB and Apple connection. Exterior upgrades: Colour matched powder coated rallye wheels with correct diameter 215-65-15 radial tires. Van engine block rebuilt with new internals into a 140HP 4 carb. Ceramic coated headers with dual exhaust. 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 75 mph. Have full documentation on the restoration. Just the paint and engine parts cost more than my asking price. I have offers below 7500 set to automatically reject. I may consider an offer near that without the stereo system. Email for more details. Any van parts I have will go with the van if the buyer wants them. Some parts are bench seat shown, spare axles, original heads, heater shrouds, uninstalled weatherstripping, boomerang, radios and who knows how much more. May also consider an interesting trade. Looking for a cruiser motorcycle, 2 up ATV. or.... |

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in
Sat, 15 Jun 2013You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
