1960 Chevrolet Corvair 500 Sedan on 2040-cars
US $3,200.00
Year:1960
Mileage:999999
Location:
United States
|
For Sale: 1960 Corvair 500 Sedan. 80 hp flat 6 air cooled engine with 3 speed manual trans. Included with the car is all of the stainless trim from a 700 sedan along with a container of new parts to include complete engine reseal gaskets, new lenses for the front turn signals and NOS parts for the rears and some interior parts etc... The front floors have rust but I undercoated them to seal the cabin and installed a new carpet from Clarks Corvair Parts (my new parts source). The carpet install needs to be completed (sill panels) and the new kick panels installed. I changed out the steering wheel for a period correct 60's hot rod wheel and had new door panels made in metallic vinyl by J&T 'Vairs in Des Moines Iowa. The front seat bottom was stripped and poly foam installed. Not "correct" but comfortable. (check out the seat covers and hula girl) I was going for a 70's era surf car theme. Car runs and drives great but I would suggest resealing the pushrod tubes etc to correct an oil leak and going through the wheel cylinders to get the brakes working better. I ran the gas out of the car so the ethanol wouldn't phase separate and cause corrosion in the fuel system. When we got the car it was set up with tow bar mounts and a new towbar is included for transport. The car has been garaged since I've had it and is currently in my shop in Burton for inspection. The paint was redone some years ago and has a few primer spots but overall the car is in superb shape for its age (albeit the front floors as mentioned)
The car includes NOS front mats I bought for $150.00 (usually over $300.00) and is equipped with the optional gas heater which also comes with a new exhaust pipe. The trunk area is virtually perfect for a 54 year old car and has the proper stock rubber trunk floor covering (very rare to find in this condition) I also am including some NOS Chinook helicopter seatbelts with the car (old school style racing belts) There are more new/used parts included but without doing an inventory this will have to do for now. I do have a new/used speedometer as well. The old one is working fine but has some surface rust on the scale area. The factory AM radio works fine but could use a new speaker. The grill bar on the front is an NOS replacement. The original is included in the parts stash.... Under the dash is a switch box to put the car in being towed mode and there is a jack in the trunk area and a cable to hook to the tow vehicle included. Spare tire, Lugwrench and Jack in excellent condtion as well. I have 2 other Corvairs and this one is just sitting so I'm putting it up for sale to fix up the others. There is a myriad of forums and information available online. (Clear title in my name for immediate transfer. Car is currently insured/tagged and includes a new towbar to move it. Will need gas and maintenance as stated above to be road ready. I would not rate this as a "project" btw, far too nice for a 54 year old car!!!) If you want a cool collector car for a cheap price or have an old school teenager at home this is the perfect driver quality vintage car!!! the roofline is very low with regard to other cars. This is one cool old school sled!!! I do not recall the mileage as the car is in storage at my shop but believe it to be under 100k. Car is all original except for the items I added (door panels/steering wheel etc) Email for bigger pics or text to 843 two five two 6005. My name is Mike |

Nissan Leaf ends 2013 with best sales month ever, but can't catch Chevy Volt
Fri, Jan 3 2014Nissan and Chevrolet both ended 2013 with solid sales figures for their plug-in vehicles, the first two that were released (all the way back at the end of 2010) from major automakers. As has been the story for most of 2013, December sales for the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt were roughly the same. When we left the year-to-date running tally at the end of November, the Volt was at 20,702, while the Leaf was at 20,080. As you can tell from the image above (if you've been noticing the trend in these EV sales monthly flash-reports), the Leaf outsold the Volt, but was it enough to put the Nissan on top for the year? In 2013, Nissan sold 22,610 Leafs, more than twice as many as in 2012. Almost. The Leaf made a valiant attempt, and did have its best month ever with 2,529 units sold. That means that for 2013, Nissan moved a total of 22,610 Leafs, more than twice as many as in 2012 (that year, Nissan sold only 9,819 Leafs in the US) and actually more than 2012 and 2011 Leaf sales combined (which was 19,493). Nissan continues to see the effects of its price drop and expanded sales areas, with Georgia rapidly becoming a Leaf hotbed. Nissan's Paige Presley said that Atlanta was once again the Leaf's number one market and that, "sales are expanding deeper into Georgia markets such as Macon and Columbus." The Volt saw a boost upwards from a November slump and sold 2,392 units in December. That puts the plug-in hybrid's annual total at 23,094, just down from the 23,461 sold in 2012. For all of 2013, though, the Volt outsold the Leaf by 484 vehicles. In a competition like this, we'll count that as a win for both sides. We will our more detailed monthly green car sales report, which covers more of the fuel efficient vehicles on the market, up soon.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR
Tue, Sep 13 2016AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!
