The Chevy Corvair in its run during the 60's was the only rear mounted engine car ever to manufactured in America, that still stands today. This 1966 "500" was the base model Corvair offered that year, this one having the 110 HP motor option.
She starts fine, but will not idle long. Both carburators need to be properly adjusted. Gas tank needs to be boiled or replaced. Currently brakes are non-operational, needs a few short lines replaced.
Car comes with the 5 original factory rims, with tires. Willing to work a deal for the 4 aluminum mags currently on the car.
Car Body is in great shape. Some surface rust, but very minor. Doors and windows fit tight and work well. Interior is acceptable for the cars age. Needs cleaning, few tears in the seats, but to be expected.
I am the third owner, but havent transfered my name to title just yet. The Car Title has $200 past title/registration fees due in Boone County Iowa, from the previous owners failure to pay them.
This car is a great restore project waiting to happen. But she also can be road worthy with just a few small fixes.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
