Offered for sale is our delightful 1963 1/2 California Chevrolet Corvair Greenbrier. This van was produced in small numbers from 1961 to 1965. This particular example has benefited from low, long-term ownership and has always been a Southern California car, residing much of its life in the “Inland Empire” away from coast. It’s a rust-free van that was restored to a very eye-pleasing driver-quality level, and it runs even better than it looks. It’s simply a joy to drive and has plenty of power to spare. It will pass a VW bus on a grade and you can wave a happy “Hawaiian Shaka” to the slow moving snail! It elicits numerous thumbs-up as you cruise this nicely two-toned attention getter! With all but the rear two windows able to be rolled down, the breezes billow throughout the cabin and the visibility is astounding! On the day of the photo shoot, we stopped for a cup of coffee on the Coast Highway in Huntington Beach, the Greenbrier van became immediately swamped by admirers and the questions were flying! Everyone is curious as to the origins of this cool looking coastal cruiser! It truly is a Southern California beach icon. With the drastically rising price values of the quintessential Volkswagen van, discerning buyers are looking at other affordably priced options. Virtually the only other people-carrying van of this era that is rear-engine and air-cooled, it mimicked VW’s finer points but surpassed much of the obsolete design with somewhat radical (for the time) car engineering concepts. The Corvair 95 platform is of “forward control” design, meaning the steering gear was mounted ahead of the front wheels. A raised-deck floor is required to clear the engine. The engine is Corvair’s air-cooled opposed six-cylinder was named “Turbo Air”. It displaces 145 cubic inches and is fed by twin carburetors. With four-wheel independent suspension and weight equally divided between front and rear means that the handling characteristics are superb, loaded or unloaded. Folks, Ralph Nader was wrong---dead wrong oops he is still alive and so is the Corvair's Mechanically, the Chevy van starts right up on first try and purrs along while it drives. The brakes are excellent, but as drum brakes one needs to know that it will not provide disc-brake efficiency. Tires are brand new The restoration was all performed during the last 6 Months so much of the car looks shiny and bright! The new chrome glimmers in the California sunshine, the newly upholstered seats are comfy and the new carpeting adds a nice touch! All of the correct and original emblems are on the car. All of the mechanicals have been dealt with and improved, so rest assured this is a reliable, enjoyable driver! If you desire a clean, original California Corvair van, then look no further than this awesome 1963 1/2 Chevrolet Greenbrier!

Chevrolet will preview electrified Silverado-like truck at CES 2021
Wed, Dec 30 2020After abandoning its fight against California's lawmakers, General Motors is shifting its electrification offensive into high gear. CEO Mary Barra will give the opening keynote address at the 2021 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which will be held online, and Chevrolet will provide a peek at its electrified pickup during the event. Insiders familiar with the carmaker's plans told Bloomberg that Barra's address will highlight ways that electrification can improve the environment and society in general. General Motors president Mark Reuss will speak, too, and his remarks will be followed by a video that will highlight several future products, including what the sources referred to as "a plug-in Chevrolet pickup, some Cadillac models, and vehicles for other brands." These comments ask more questions than they answer, because plug-in means many things in this context. Chevrolet's electric Bolt is a plug-in vehicle, as is the upcoming GMC Hummer, but the plug-in hybrid Jeep Wrangler 4xe is one, too, and it's clearly not all-electric. It's often been assumed that Chevrolet's upcoming electrified truck will be electric, but it might arrive with a hybrid powertrain or a gasoline-powered range extender. Chevrolet could also follow Ford's lead and plant a stake in both the hybrid and the electric pickup segments. It's too early to tell if Chevrolet will unveil the same truck it previewed during a presentation earlier in 2020. Shown briefly, it wore a highly futuristic design that gave it a sleeker look than the current-generation Silverado. Cadillac's presentation promises to be interesting, because the company hinted it might abandon gasoline entirely by 2025, several years earlier than expected, even though its dealers aren't all on board with the shift. Going electric-only in about four years would force the brand to conduct a massive overhaul of its range. As of writing, there is not a single electric Cadillac in showrooms, but the Lyriq will arrive in late 2022 as a 2023 model. It's difficult to tell what's in store for other brands, but there are several cars that General Motors could show during CES. Buick doesn't sell an electric car in the United States yet, for example. Alternatively, GMC is working on an SUV variant of the Hummer, and it has started developing an electric truck. Going back to Chevrolet, our crystal ball tells us we'll see more of the 2022 Bolt EUV during the next edition of the tech show, too.
