 The paint on the car is the factory Black color. It was repainted 15 years ago when the car was fully restored. Today I would rate the paint quality at Driver Condtion. There are chips and dullness to hood and trunk along with areas of the paint starting to craze/check. It is real nice 20 footer that is Totally drivable/ usable the way it is but to be perfect could use repaint. Body lines look straight on the car. A small area in front quarter panel appears to have been repaired in the past but still looks good. Floors on the car were all replaced 10 years ago when restored and are in great solid shape. 
Underneath the car is real solid(seephotos) Overall a good solid Rare Corvair.

Front bumper is great condtion along with bumper gaurds. 

Rear bumper with need re-chromed. Chrome is chipping off in spots on top but bumper is very solid. 
Original spinner wire wheel hup caps are in great shape.
Tires have like new tread but are old style bias ply. 

Engine: 
This car starts up easily and runs good.  I do not know much about these Turbo cars and how that all works. The engine does smoke some and has small oil leak. Mechanic said there is a bad O ring seal.  Not hard to fix and seals are cheap. Otherwise Car runs and drives nice the way it is.
4 speed Transmission shifts smoothly into all gears and clutch feels great. 

This past month the following was completed after car was removed from collection storage...
-Drained Gas Tank, Cleaned and refilled w/ Fresh Gas
-Oil Change

CONVERTIBLE TOP:
 Top frame is rust free and in good condition. Top is a manual drop top.
 Fabric on the top will need replaced. They run about $220 for new material with new window. Top has small tear in two spots otherwise very useable. Back window however is brittle and has cracked in some places. 
 
SUMMARY… This is a rare desirable Corvair that is super Fun to drive. Gets compliments constantly when out cruising around. 
This car is ready for new owner to give it some TLC tinkering on the minor items while enjoying driving today.

Chevy Volt, Nissan Leaf sales show big drops in September

Thu, Oct 1 2015

As most readers likely know, it's not just lower gas prices that are affecting plug-in vehicle sales. The two long-time sales leaders in the US - the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt - are getting long in the tooth. First introduced in late 2010, the vehicles have been updated here and there since then, but recent sales figures have been lagging behind where they were in 2014. This trend continued in September, with sales of both vehicles down in a big way compared to last year. Sales of Nissan Leaf totaled 1,247 for the month of September. This is down a whopping 56.7 percent from September 2014, but thankfully the year-to-date sales are not quite as negative. So far this year, Nissan has sold 13,630 Leafs, which is "just" 37.5 percent lower tan the YTD total at this point in 2014 (21,822). This decrease swims against the overall direction of Nissan's September sales, which were up 18 percent over last year and set a new September record. The Volt sold 949 units last month, down 31.9 percent from last September. Year to date, the Volt has sold 9,264 units, which is 36.3 percent lower than the number of Volts that were sold in the first nine months of 2014 (14,540). This downward trend might be coming to an end soon. The new Chevy Volt will go on sale in 11 US states later this fall, and the 2017 model will be available nationwide next spring. An updated Leaf for the 2016 model year also offers more miles – 107, vs 84 in the 2015 version – so potential customers who have been waiting for the latest and greatest will soon not have any excuses. We'll have our broader look at green car sales in the US up soon. Green Chevrolet Nissan Electric Hybrid ev sales hybrid sales volt

2020 Chevy and GMC HD truck spy shots reveal LED lighting

Mon, Aug 20 2018

With Chevy and GMC's 1500 series pickups just starting to roll into dealerships, our attention naturally turns to the Heavy Duty 2500 and 3500 series trucks. We've seen these HD trucks testing already, but thes latest spy photos give us our first good glimpse of the two HD trucks' headlights through some translucent camouflage, and their designs appear very interesting and quite different from each other. The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado HD looks to be getting a striking set of LED lights that flank the grille. A previously released teaser image of the truck shows that the front lighting elements are split by a bulky wing that branches out from a big, upright chrome face, and both top and bottom units seem to incorporate LED slashes. If you look closely at the images, you can easily make out the Chevrolet script cut into the grille's top edge. Amidst a bevy of Chevy test trucks was one lone GMC model in a dually configuration, and the Sierra HD also appears to have some LED accent lighting up front. Unlike the boomerang-shaped Chevy LEDs, GMC's version sports a shoulder-like right angle of light bars. Assuming these are production-level lighting units, it seems the Sierra HD will stick pretty close to the face of GMC's latest light-duty pickup truck. We're still waiting for confirmation on what range of powertrains will be available in GM's next-gen HD trucks, but we're sure there will be both gasoline- and diesel-burning engines on the ordering sheet. We expect to hear official details on the trucks sometime soon.
