ALL ORIGINAL, 2-Family Owned, Ultra Rare Greenbriar Pop-Top!

     Here is a beautiful 1962 Corvair Greenbriar van that is truly one of a kind. Not only in its configuration and condition, but in its wonderful story and documentation over the years, it was truly a member of the family. The car is a two owner remaining in the same Washington/South Dakota family ownership until just last year. The car has lived its whole life on the west coast so you know it is as solid as a rock! It recently came out of storage and has been made ready for the open road once again. Don't miss your chance to own a truly beautiful Corvair Greenbriar that will get looks everywhere it goes....Bid Now!

The following is a list of options as this Greenbriar is currently equipped:

-65hp 145ci 6cyl Engine (Rebuilt)

-4 Speed Manual Transmission

-Chevrolet Hubcaps w/ Color Matched Steel Wheels

-New Radial Tires w/ PortoWalls

     The body on the car is overall straight and totally solid and rust free. The paint on the car is finished in its original coat of Sierra Gold having absolutely ZERO paintwork over the years. The original owner had the dealer paint the white cove and roof shortly after purchasing the van in 1962 for a cost of $35 at the dealer! I would describe the overall paint as a very nicely kept paint with a few small imperfections and chips, which have been touched up. Remember, this paint is over 50 years old, but looks great going down the street and still has a high shine and luster! The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any West Coast car should be. Remember this van was only driven in the warm months when the family took it on adventures and was always stored away correctly during the winter. The car is riding on nice, original restored wheels and has new radial tires. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in good original condition and have not been altered since new other than front bumper which was just redone due to a small dent.

     The interior is in very good shape all around. The seat is in good condition with only minimal ware, which shows the quality of materials used in this car. The previous owner at some point thought about restoring it and contacted SMS fabrics and the original material is still available. The rubber floors are all very nice are not worn or damaged. The dash is like new and looks great. All gauges and controls function as they should. The original AM radio even still works great. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The rear camper area is flawless and all cabinets are beautiful and all latches and hinges are in excellent condition. The rear bed cushions look freshly redone with new foam and material and nothing is dirty or has any kinds of funny smells or ware.

     Mechanically, this Greenbriar runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. A lot of time and money was spent under the hood of this little Van. The motor is a fresh rebuild at 64,000 miles and has always been super meticulously maintained. The van starts up and runs like silk. It also is tight as a drum and leaks nothing...extremely rare for a Corvair! Brakes, fuel system, suspension were all done at some point during his 20+ years of ownership. He always did his own work and made sure it was in tip-top shape. Under the hood looks fresh and detailed.

    The really neat thing about this van is its exceptional original documentation. This Corvair literally has everything that ever came with it including original purchase documents, receipt for engine rebuild, original owners manuals, dealer brochures, accessories booklet, and all necessary original service books to keep this van running great! It also includes all of its original camping equipment right down to the original Coleman cooler, stove, and kerosene lantern!

    All in all, this is truly one of the coolest Corvair Greenbriars on the road today. Its early vintage sets it apart from all of the others. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This is your chance to get a like new classic camper for a fraction of the original cost. The car has a clean Arizona title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.

Chevy Volt owners log half a billion electric miles, 2015 production starts

Thu, Jun 19 2014

As General Motors gets ready to start 2015 Volt production Monday, Chevrolet is looking back at some of the numbers that got the car to where it is today. The headline number is that Volt owners have collectively put more than a half-billion electric miles on their cars. The unsurprising upshot is that, if you went out and bought a Volt, you're pretty keen on getting as many electric miles out of it as possible. 90 percent of all Volt trips are done purely on electric power. The typical Volt driver goes 970 miles between fill-ups, GM says, and that means that 63 percent of all miles are done on battery power. General Motors executive director Larry Nitz gave AutoblogGreen a few more details on the usage habits of Volt drivers, including that 81 percent of commuting miles are electric. Two-thirds of US Volt drivers charge their vehicle 1.4 times a day, a clear indicator of drivers trying to maximize electric miles through opportunity charging. In fact, Nitz said, 90 percent of all Volt trips are done purely on electric power. GM also says that the Volt's official 35 miles of electric range is still doable for many owners who have had their car for more than 30 months. Looking ahead, we know that one upgrade for the 2015 Volt will be 4G LTE connectivity that can turn the car, like others in the GM family, into a mobile wifi hotspot. We're of course much more interested in when GM is finally going to start production of the next-gen Volt, but GM officials would only tell us that they're very excited about the still-secret vehicle, promising we'll be learning more "soon." Nitz did confirm that today's Volt drivers are most interested in three things from the next-gen model: more range, a lower price and a fifth seat. He did not say whether or not GM will be able to deliver on those requests. Chevrolet Volt Owners Surpass Half a Billion Electric Miles After 30 months of use, a sampling of Volts shows consistent all-electric range 2014-06-19 DETROIT – Since its launch in late 2010, Chevrolet Volt owners have accumulated more than half a billion all-electric miles. Additionally, based on a General Motors' study of more than 300 Volts in service in California for more than 30 months, many owners are exceeding the EPA-rated label of 35 miles of EV range per full charge, with about 15 percent surpassing 40 miles of range.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
