1962 Chevrolet Corvair 95 Ramp Side Pick Up
You are viewing a super nice ride that is very cool and tricked out. Great surfer pick up wagon. Done, dialed in, super clean and ready to go. Needs nothing. The build was over a few years and just recently finished with 45K original miles showing on the odometer. The truck runs and drives excellent in town and at hiway speed. Driven 267 miles since finished a few months ago.
Please read on for more particulars of the car:
Body/Paint: The body is in excellent condition and is all steel. It has had some patches panels installed in some areas. No rust on the pick up. The body was professionally prepped for paint. PPG base/clear original colors for the year. Wet sanded and buffed to a really nice finish. The truck shows very well. Some alterations done that make the truck better than factory involving items the factory should have done. The engine cover was hinged to make it much easier to access the engine compartment with prop support. The lower engine door, which pulls out is 64 with the inserted license plate area. The bed, top edges and bottom portion of the rockers have bed liner material, which is color matched to the paint, both colors. The bed is near perfect with great care in appearance and quality of build using welting on the seams. Very presentable. Weather stripping has been replaced. Many items on the truck are powder coated for durability and appearance.
Interior: The interior has been restored with some Greenbrier model upgrades from a donor car. Done in a very cool quality vinyl with color coded piping. The interior is very 60’s looking and tasteful. The shifter is 64, which is much better than the 62 shifter set up. This requires a 64 gas tank to accommodate the shifter since the shifter rod goes through the gas tank. So much better to shift and drive than a stock 62. Upgraded door panels, sun visors and headliner. Gauge cluster is also out of a Greenbrier. Sound deadener in back of seat along with good spare tire and storage pockets on the back of the seat. New steering wheel and knobs and mats. Eight track player that works well with cab speakers. New carpet.
Running Gear: The engine has also been upgraded to a 65 Corvair car engine 110 hp, which makes the truck much better to drive with lots of power. The engine runs excellent and has very good compression. The flywheel has been bolted rather than riveted like factory that was a problem back in the day. Alternator upgrade providing better reliability. Carbs have been rebuilt in the past and work very well and recently tuned with new wires, plugs, points, cap and rotor. The trans is 4 speed stock with 64 shifter upgrade and works as it should. The trans axle is all in good working order with no issues.
Suspension/Fame: Clean with no rust and in very good condition. The springs have been cut to lower the truck providing a very cool stance. New hi pressure shocks installed. Drives excellent and very straight. The suspension on these trucks were over built and the same as a half-ton pick of the day. They are very solid and stout.
Bright work: Chrome bumpers are original in very good condition with a few scratches on the rear bumper. All bright work is in good to very good condition with some small signs of wear, but very presentable. Windshield chrome strip upgrade. Tail gate reflectors are also an upgrade aftermarket with blue dots on the lights. Polished stainless fasteners used throughout the truck primarily in the bed. Very classy and well done. Chrome bed handles are new.
Glass: All original in very good condition.
Exhaust: New stock exhaust.
Brakes: Non power stock drum brakes with upgraded dual line master cylinder that is new and stops excellent.
Wheels/Tires: Wheels and tires are new. 14X7 chrome five spoke Supremes with 195/75 R 14 tires.
What doesn’t work: Radio and fuel gauge do not work at this time. Heater is not working due to cables not being hooked up. The blower motor is in place. Summary: If you are seeking a very cool ride that is different and want to stand out this truck is certainly worthy of your consideration. Very cool and clean nostalgia vintage look that needs nothing. I have over 100 pictures of the truck so please contact me and provide your email address if you would like additional pictures. Great value and quality build for the money. Don’t let this truck slip away. Disclaimer: The car is for sale locally. The owner has the right to cancel the auction at any time for any reason. No warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied with the car being sold in "AS IS" condition. Feel free to call me to discuss the particulars. |

Bob Lutz says Tesla remains 'fringe' brand
Sun, Sep 28 2014We've said it before, we'll said it again: Bob Lutz gives great quotes. From his toilet-themed opinion of global warming to Toyota's deity status, the man knows how to get your attention. His latest? Saying that Tesla Motors is and will remain a fringe brand. Take that, Tesla fanbois. This, of course, is the same fringe company that prompted Lutz and his former colleagues at General Motors to start working on the Chevy Volt around eight years ago. The same fringe company that has easily outsold the similarly priced (but don't call it a competitor) Cadillac ELR with its Model S. Lutz did clarify that the fringe status will only last until Tesla comes out with a mass-market electric vehicle that has a range of 200 to 300 miles. Lutz was on CNBC talking about the TSLA stock's recent performance, and he pointed out that even Tesla CEO Elon Musk says that the California automaker's stock is overvalued these days. Despite its prevalence around these parts, Tesla is not yet a household brand. But the company is working hard to get a cheaper, long-range EV to market in the not-too-distant future, so this fringe thing may not last much longer than that show Fringe did.

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study
Wed, Jul 22 2015The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car. Check out the official release on the 2015 APEAL Study, available below, from JD Power. 2015 U.S. APEAL Study Results The latest safety-related technologies are among the drivers of customer satisfaction with new vehicles, according to the J.D.
