1964 Corvair Spyder The most desirable of the Chevrolet Corvais as it was the
last year of the original body style with Improved rear independent suspension
and first year of the larger displacement engine. The engine with the car is a
1966 180 For a size comparison the early model Corvair is very similar in size to a modern sedan like a new BMW 328.
The car is at the half way point of full restoration – Body work is done externally the car was stripped to bare metal and all patches were made with metal. Then the body was repainted in DuPont black, color sanding, cut and buffing has not been done yet.
The custom wheels on the car are Western 30 spoke turbine wheels custom machined to fit with builit knock off cones and 62 Chevrolet spinners similar to what was used on the 1965-66 Corvette.
The 1964 Corvair had full body trim rock panel and wheel
well. The trim comes with the car though needs to be straightened. Many new
parts come with the car mirrors, door handles. The grill bar presently shown is
from a 62 car and the 64 grill bar I have and will install The Monza spyder
interment panel will come spare set of gages as well and Hurst shifter with
quick shirt for the 4 speed transmission. Radio I have a restored AM/FM GM
radio to replace the AM radio. Steering column is in the process of being
converted to a 1969 collapsible safety column. Seats are heated seats from a
Saab 900 turbo some interior work and painting of the interior panels of
the car is required. The car has been converted to front disk brakes. All new
brake lines installed with steel braded flexible lines. Aluminum chrome plated
dual master cylinder and residual valves. The rear suspension is completely
restored with all new bushings, everything was blasted and powder coated and
new grade 8 bolts installed. Clean new rear suspension with KYB high pressure
Gas shocks Cleaned and panted underside of the car tunnel cover is powder coated
fuel tank cleaned and painted and coated internally. The front suspension is
completely restored with all new bushings and ball joints everything was
blasted and powder coated and new grade 8 bolts installed with exception to the
steering tie rods. Steering box was completely rebuilt. . The engine is a 180 turbo 1966 – highest power
factory corvair engine with Offfenhauser deep sump and valve cover and a high
flow oil pump. The engine looks to
have very low miles on it hash marks from honing are still visible , as I was
told by previous owner that it had less than 10K. The engine still needs to be
toughly cleaned and reassembled with new gaskets and seals. The plan was to
convert the turbo system to blow through using a Weber side draft or EFI and
water to air intercooler, Many of components for turbo system upgrade have been
purchased and come with the car. I have spent 20 K on the car and would like 7K
for it this is a forced sale as I am moving overseas and the country I am
moving to
Complete set of mandrel exhaust bends and Borla stainless steel muffler is included as well.
Two Corvair specialist in restoration have seen the car and both told me the car if I keep going the way I am will have the best restored early model Corvair they have seen in a long time.

Watch this week's Top Gear America used-car challenge
Sat, Sep 9 2017Top Gear America is back for the penultimate episode of the first season. Used car challenges were some of the highlights of the original UK edition. In our exclusive clip, Tom Ford, Antron Brown and William Fichtner run their $7,000 sports cars in a drag race. As expected, the trio chose very different cars for the challenge. Watch the video to see if a Subaru WRX's all-wheel drive can overcome a power deficit to beat a Ford Mustang and a Chevy Corvette. Brown and Fichtner also spend some time relaxing with an old Jeep Wagoneer. Like them, we're really hoping Jeep will bring back the Wagoneer nameplate. Brown also drives a Maserati Levante, proving that not all family cars need be boring. This week's guest star is actor, rapper and former host of Pimp My Ride, Xzibit. Top Gear America airs Sundays at 8 p.m. Eastern on BBC America. Related Video: Celebrities TV/Movies Chevrolet Ford Subaru Top Gear exclusive top gear america
Where the 2023 GMC Sierra AT4X fits into the hierarchy of off-road trucks
Fri, Oct 22 2021The world of off-road pickups sure seems like it's getting crowded, but the reality is that half-ton trucks were always pretty capable, even with what seemed like fairly basic 4x4 packages. It wasn't until recently that manufacturers really started to carve out different off-road niches for their mainstream pickup offerings. With the introduction of the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X (alongside its mechanical twin, the Chevy Silverado ZR2), the crowd has grown even thicker. Even we have trouble keeping up with the increased segmentation of off-road pickup trucks, so we threw together this handy guide to help you understand just where these various packages fit into the broader pickup hierarchy. Let's dive in. Your basics If we say "Z71" or "FX4" to you, both will probably ring a bell. That's because they've been around a few days short of forever and their respective customers have grown so used to these package codes that OEMs got into the habit of just plastering them on the side of so-equipped truck beds. Anybody who sells a pickup truck offers some sort of basic off-road prep package like this one. Z71 is found on GM vehicles; FX4 is Ford's. Ram just calls it "Off Road Group," but no matter what you call them, they're all pretty similar. Typical upgrades for this category include some additional ground clearance, a basic all-terrain tire, heavy-duty suspension upgrades and likely either a limited-slip or locking rear differential. These are pretty handy for anything beyond a rutted dirt road. On newer trucks — especially on higher trim levels — you'll probably also get some dedicated off-road drive modes. Mid-range This is where things start to get interesting. To qualify for this category, a locking rear differential is a must. Most of the names in this segment are well-established too, though some (Nissan Titan Pro-4X, anyone?) may not necessarily be on your radar. The Toyota Tundra TRD Pro checks in here, as does the Ram Rebel, Chevy Silverado Trail Boss and GMC Sierra AT4 (no X!). Realistically, if there's somewhere you need to go and one of these trucks won't do it, you might want to consider a helicopter. But it's 2021, and our thirst for capability is strong, so of course, there's a way to spend more of your money on this type of thing. Onward! Entry-hardcore Here we are, the home of the new 2022 GMC Sierra AT4X and Chevrolet Silverado ZR2. This is a tiny niche, otherwise occupied only by the Ford F-150 Tremor.
