1962 Chevrolete Corvair


Up for auction is my 1962 Chevy Corvair, California car all its life! According to it's vin it was manufactured in Oakland and it has been here since then.

I've been working on it on and off and have it running and idling smooth and quiet. It's all original and unmolested! All lights, inside and out work! Including the lights in the gauge cluster and working factory radio!

The car has all windows in good condition, with all windows opening and closing as they should. All chrome is there except for a small 1/2-Beauty trim that goes around the gas lid.

The car is at least 95% complete and functioning. It starts up right away and idles smooth and quiet, it's a great local cruiser.

The following is a list of items that have been replaced or fixed within the last 100 miles:

  • New Falken Tires 
  • New KYB Shocks / Gas-A-Just - All four corners 
  • New Brakes - All four corners
  • New Starter
  • New rebuilt generator
  • Rebuilt / Refurbished Voltage Regulator
  • New Fan belt
  • New battery
  • New Spark Plug Wires
  • New Tune-Up kit
  • New Oil Pan Gasket
  • New Transmission Gaskets
  • New Valve Cover Gaskets
  • Repacked wheel bearings
  • Resurfaced brake drums
  • Recently adjusted points and carburetors
  • New Rear Housing Gasket & Seal (needs to be installed)
  • New Differential Rebuild Gasket (needs to be installed)
  • New Viton Push Rod Tube O-Ring (needs to be installed)

As you can see from the pictures, it does need a fresh paint job to make it shine as it did back in '62. It only has surface rust from being sun beaten. To my knowledge all floorboards and body panels are in good condition. The upholstery although complete also needs to be freshened-up. 

The only thing that needs to be addressed is the famous Corvair Oil-Leak. The car does leak oil, just like any other Corvair. However I do have three new sets of gaskets/seals and O-Rings that are being included with the car.... that way the new owner does not have to hunt down these parts. Once these seals are replaced I am confident the car will be leak free.

I also have the car for sale locally so I reserve the right to end this auction early. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions BEFORE you bid.

I will ship globally. I can help refer you to shipping companies that can deliver this car to any place in the world. All shipping fees are buyer's responsibility

This car is being sold AS-IS, with NO promises, guarantees or warranties made or implied.

Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
