The car was born in Los Angeles with time spent in Texas, garage kept after migration to Michigan. Features: Telescope Steering and Wood Wheel, Flaming River Quick Steering Box, 2K on new 205x14” tires mounted on “Hands Racing-like” wheels, 8K on new brakes. Some spares.

Two Engines:

  • In car and running a Yenko stinger stage III tribute: .030 over, two Weber 40 IDA 3 Barrel Carbs, Ported & Polished, Roller Rockers, headers, Pertronix ignition.
  • Numbers-matching original 180 Turbo engine Included. Disassembled. All turbo parts including distributor. Includes cast alumimum Otto 2-piece, high capacity oil pickup and valve covers.


Body condition - the only blemish is slight bubbling on the lower front fenders just in front of the rockers. (The previous owner had left leaves in the cowl vent wash area too long.), but otherwise there is nothing else. The car is unrestored but was repainted black with clear coat at some time before I got it. I bought the car in 2005 or 2006 and put about 1000 to 1200 miles per year. I have had a string of Corvairs since 1961 and both my sons have their own Corvairs as my father did before me. I say all that because the reason I bought the car was because I got a look underneath and had not seen a cleaner more rust free  un-restored Corvair since I had bought them new. It is my Summer-only car that I have kept in a heated garage that I built specifically for it.  Judging from the clean condition, the Los Angeles build + a Southern Ca AAA sticker in the engine compartment, I don't think it has ever "seen" snow.

Sunday Drive: Performance comes in many shapes and sizes

Sun, Nov 19 2017

The Chevrolet Corvette has always stood out as a bastion of reasonably priced performance, and the latest 'Vette has that in spades. And while its expected starting price of around $120,000 certainly isn't cheap, it's an undeniable deal in the supercar world – remember, this thing'll do 210 miles per hour thanks to its 755-horsepower supercharged V8 engine. And did you get a load of that massive rear wing? Team Corvette's longtime foe, the Porsche 911, is similarly hellbent on ultimate performance. And as a reminder of how long the Corvette/911 rivalry has been melting tires we present the 1990 Porsche 911 as reimagined by Singer you see below. It's beautiful, it's green, and it's packing 500 air-cooled horsepower. You don't have to burn gasoline to go fast, as proven by the second-generation Tesla Roadster, which was revealed as a surprise late last week. Elon Musk says it'll be the quickest car in the world with a 0-60 time of just 1.9 seconds. And while you may not think of a semi truck when you think speed, the Tesla Semi can do 0-60 in 5 seconds flat unloaded, or in 20 seconds with a load of 80,000 pounds. Compared to today's crop of diesel semis, that's amazing. Continuing the truck theme, we present an artists rendering of what the next-generation Ram 1500 pickup may look like. Spoiler alert: Ram's mini-semi look is giving way to something much more modern. There may even be a first-of-its-kind split tailgate at the rear. And if you don't think the Ram 1500 has anything to do with performance, we should remind you that it's one of the cheapest ways to get a tire-shredding Hemi V8 engine in America. 2019 Chevy Corvette ZR1: All hail the 755-horsepower C7 king This is the first Porsche 911 to get Singer and Williams' 500-horsepower engine Tesla Roadster surprise reveal | 'Quickest car in the world' Tesla Semi Truck revealed: Here are the key details This could be the next-generation 2019 Ram 1500 2019 Ram 1500 spotted with split tailgate

Franchitti, Kanaan, and Dixon prank young IndyCar driver

Fri, May 22 2015

The 20-year-old Sage Karam is a rising star in racing after scoring the 2013 Indy Lights Championship and taking ninth place in the 2014 Indianapolis 500. He's now competing for Chip Ganasi Racing, one of the top teams in the IndyCar Series, and counts this year's pole sitter Scott Dixon and former winner Tony Kanaan as teammates. Of course, being so young and a new member of the squad, some lighthearted hazing is to be expected. Dixon, Kanaan, and three-time Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti decided to play a little prank on Karam. While ostensibly detailing his Chevrolet Camaro, the three joking racecar drivers turned it into the Karamo. Check out the video above to see exactly what that means. After some scary crashes going into this year's event, it's refreshing to watch some cheery things happening at Indy.
