1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa Convertible, 4-speed, Triple Black.64k Miles. Clean on 2040-cars
Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, United States
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:
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. Buyer will be responsible for shipping/delivery.

Autoblog Podcast #327:
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
