1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa Convertible, 4-speed, White/red Interior New Roof on 2040-cars
Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
|
For Sale is a 1965 Chevy Corvair Corsa Convertible with @104K Miles on It. It is 140 HP model.
It has been garaged in Las Vegas and has been a reliable method of transport for over a decade. The car has been in my family for over 2 decades and was originally purchased out of Texas. My dad gave it to me when he retired. I did the following to it (with the help of Marty Katz): 1) Installed Seat Belts. 2) Regular Maintenance 3) Put on a new roof last year. 4) Tires are fairly new with little mileage The car has been taken care of by Marty Katz locally in Las Vegas. If you don't know Marty and own a Corvair or an Austin, you should. He's great and loves these machines. I have to sell the car due to a divorce. This is a gorgeous car and is one of my favorites. I would like for it to go to a good home. Here are the only issues: 1) Recently horn developed an intermittent short. This is annoying but is an easy fix. You also get a lot more attention, which is a plus. 2) Battery died due to #1 3) Windshield Fluid Pump never worked. Ever. I put fluid in. I think I have an original fluid container somewhere in the trunk. 4) AM Radio has loud static at times. This might be normal. I'm at the age where I barely remember AM Radio. I really like listening to old country when I drive in Vegas. Old country listening is optional upon purchase. 5) The front seats were replaced when the car had an overhaul-probably about 30 years ago. They are in great shape. The rear bench is original, I think. Rear Bench has seatbelts, too. I wanted them installed for when I drove my nieces and nephews around. 6) Car has been in the garage for about half a year. We hosed the Vegas dust off of it. Which explains the water. Assume you need to put additive in the gas. This is a good idea. Please only use High Octane gas in this car. IF you aren't going to drive it much keep the fuel low and put premium in as soon as you can. 7) The driver interior door cover is a bit warped. Not bad but I figured I would mention it. (I took a photo) There is a slight tear on the dash. If you look carefully you can find it. 8) The lighter is missing. It might be under the seat. 9) I would rate this about a 7.5- I drove it not showed it. With a bit of TLC you can easily get 9-10. It needs a car wash from the dust and the stuff from me cruising around. You might want to re-paint it in a few years and re-cover the rear seat later if you are a stickler, but this is a beautiful car that always turns heads. Yep, I should have washed it well before the photos but I had limited time. I am including an AM/FM Radio and an extra mirror. If you are near Vegas and want to drive it I can go get a battery and we can go for a ride. I noticed that some of the interior photos are washed out. This is a BRIGHT red interior. The Vegas sun was very bright today. Please ignore any spurious water droplets. I can find no bubbling, which isn't surprising. The paint is intact. I've included a photo of one of the vents. The trunk is completely dry and sealed. The car sounds awesome. And no, you don't get the cool centennial Vegas plates. Please contact me if you have any additional questions. It's a great car, and I'm sad to see it go. Car does have a reserve and is subject to prior sale in the next week as it is advertised locally. But I'll be happier when my wife goes. Do a good deed today; buy my car. Or as Henny Youngman said, "Take my wife, please!" If you intend to take her, please tell me. I can keep the car if that happens. Would prefer wire transfer payment, if possible. Cash is good, too. Money order is OK, but I would prefer a local bank branch to OK it. Transport is the responsibility of purchaser. It is being stored at my old house, so the faster it gets out of there, the better. Thank you for your time. |

GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
