We have a 1965 chevy corvair corsa 140 for auction, the car was found in a barn, was purchased by a guy at an auction with the hopes of restoring it, but as time would tell the car sat in his garage, then driveway for years until he no longer wanted the car. We found it sitting, not being started in about 5 years. We towed the car back to the garage and began the process. The car was red, with the clear coat (repaint) coming off the car in pieces. We sanded the entire car for prep with the idea to repaint it back to red, but after the car was primed, in black, we decided that it looked awesome! So we painted it a matte black, as you see. The motor was then gone thru, replacing gaskets and such. We rebuilt the factory carbs, and replaced anything that they needed to work properly. The starter was replaced, and the wiring was redone. The plugs, coil, cap, rotor, and points were replaced. The factory fuel pump didnt work, so we replaced it with an electric one on it. Cleaned the gas tank and replaced the lines, putting a inline filter on it. We redid the brakes, replacing the brake hoses, pads, and front wheel cylinders. We proceeded to try to start the car, after a couple cranks it came to life, a quick adjustment of all 4 carbs, and it was running good. The car has the 4 speed transmission which shifts nicely, and clutch feels good. Car now runs and stops good, drives straight down the road and feels like it should. The interior of the car was in decent shape, we cleaned it up really good, replacing the carpet, (floor pans are good on this car), the seats do have a few tears in them, nothing terrible tho, and looks fine as a driver. Everything works on the car, turn signals, headlights, dome lights, trunk light, and engine bay light. It is fun to drive and turns heads. Took it to a car show on the first day it was done and got most aggressive looking corvair. The rims are a 14 inch american racing wheel with new tires. Now for the bad, as every car has unless you do a nut and bolt restore on them.... The front pan on the car has rusted away somewhat, and needs replaced or serious repair. The driverside fender has some cancer, which also is repairable fairly easy (we just have to much going right now and need to move it) , the trunk had a small hole, but it has been repaired with metal and looks ok. Thats about all the bad. The car is a great driver and starts everytime with no issues, its fun to drive, and everybody wants to talk about it. This a NO RESERVE auction, so winner takes all, starting low, way lower than we even have in the car. Ask questions!! The money is due within 3 days of auction or a deposit of 500.00 thru paypal if longer. Pick up with in 7 days, unless agreed upon before bid. Cash on pick up is perfered. Delivery by us can be arranged within 5 hours for a fee.

Race Recap: Rolex 24 at Daytona was fast and feisty
Mon, Jan 26 2015Let the record show that victory at the 2015 Rolex 24 at Daytona went to the No. 02 Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Target/Ford EcoBoost Riley DP driven by Verizon IndyCar drivers Scott Dixon and Tony Kanaan and NASCAR drivers Jamie McMurray and Kyle Larson. The winner did 740 laps to cover 2,634.3 miles in 24 hours and 57.667 seconds. That's a statement to this year's pace in spite of 18 cautions, two more than last year: the Michael Shank Racing Ligier got pole with a time of 1:39.194, slower than last year's pole time of 1:38.270; however, the winning car last year only did 695 laps. The fight for top honors was shaved to a four-car battle over the first third of the event. The No. 02 Ganassi car took the lead on the first lap, swapping it well into the night with the No. 01 Ganassi car, the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Corvette DP, and the defending champion No. 5 Action Express Corvette DP, all of them staying within about 20 seconds of one another. The Action Express car had a fuel connector come loose and lost three laps getting towed back to the pits to have it reattached, but was back in the lead 18 hours in. The No. 01 Ganassi car dropped out with recurring clutch problems 22 hours in, retiring not long after. A race-within-the-race is where the concluding action happened, a seven minute, 30-second dash from the end of the last caution to the checkered flag. During the penultimate pit stops with an hour to go, Dixon was in second place followed Jordan Taylor in the Wayne Taylor Racing DP into the pits but beat him out, taking the lead. The Action Express car was in third. In the last pit stops of the race, Dixon gained even more time, getting a four-second advantage over Taylor. Then a full-course caution came out twenty minutes before the finish when a Prototype Challenge car hit the wall and caught fire, bunching up the field. That closed the pits, but the Wayne Taylor Racing car had to pit during that yellow because of a miscalculation of driver time. No driver can be behind the wheel for more than four hours in a six-hour period but Jordan Taylor was going to go over, so he came in to swap out for brother Ricky. That cost the team any chance of second place, since they took an additional drive-through penalty for entering closed pits. When the track went green again, Sebastien Bourdais in the Action Express car stayed all over Dixon for the final five laps but couldn't get around him.
