1964 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
1964 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible. VIN# 40967W272901. Rare
Power Top that works well. Car is in very
good condition, drives straight at interstate speeds with no shimmy and runs
great. Mechanically very sound and
dependable worry-free driver, everything on the car works as it should both
mechanically and electrically. Nothing
worse than driving a classic car and fearing every time you stop at a light the
car will stall. No surprises or trailer-darling here, this car is ready to drive! I purchased the car 4 years ago and replaced the gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, had both carbs professionally rebuilt, new battery, rebuilt generator, new coil, distributor, wires, plugs, installed an AM\FM\CD\IPod Stereo (hidden in the glove box and closes as normal), 4 wheel brake job, lowered the frontend an inch for a better look and drive (no clearance issues), installed 4 new shocks, fixed power top and added rear seat seat-belts for safety. Solid floors and trunk, no visible rust on exterior of car. Interior in great shape with no tears or fading in seats, door panels or carpets. Convertible top in excellent condition with no tears, cracking or fading. Convertible top window clear and not yellowed, cracked or brittle. Replaced both front and rear bumpers and bumper guards with high-quality replacements with a great chrome shine. 14” tires also in great shape with very good tread and never lose air. Rims in OK condition with minimal pitting, but shine up nicely. Glass in good shape all around, few small chips in windshield, but none spidered\spreading or impeding view. Car always garaged in heated garage. Automatic transmission that you shift from the On-Dash gear selector works perfectly with no issues. Parking\Emergency brake works great. Dual Snorkel air cleaner non-stock for model, but feel it’s a better look. Paint in very good condition with good shine and looks great. Working odometer on car shows 14,541K miles, but unsure of actual miles as title doesn't show “in-excess” or state mileage of last transfer. Assuming 114K miles, but with a Convertible up-North, unsure. Runs very smooth with good power, no smoke and always starts right up and never stalls. Have Owners Manual, Service Manual, Convertible Top Cover, Car Cover and other small misc parts that will go with car. A true classic convertible that turns heads without breaking
the budget! I’ve decided to sell because
with 3 young kids, my priorities have changed for now and simply don’t have
time to drive it like I should. Full Disclosure Issues- Slight oil leak when sitting as common with Corvairs, but minimal. Small dent on top driver’s side quarter, smaller than the size of quarter (see Pic). Previous owner did cut rear door panels to install speakers (I would never do) but at least they did a nice job. Front panels in tact and stock. Speakers look good and sound great. Clear Illinois Title- I spent most of time repairing car to
be road worthy and never titled in Nebraska.
My intention was to register the “Classic YOM Plates” as seen on car and
never got around to it (lengthy process). Have clear
Illinois title and valid signed bill of sale from previous owner and myself. Payment due within 7 days of sale and car will not ship
without full and cleared payment, no exceptions. Buyer
responsible for pickup and\or any shipping charges. Bid with confidence, but please only bid on the car if you intend to buy it. The car is for sale and will sell to the highest bidder. I know I'd be leery of buying a car online, so I welcome onsite inspections during the auction from buyers or buyer’s agents, but when the auction end, the sale is final. Also, please message me for any additional information or questions and I'll do my best to answer. If requested, I can also provide my mobile number. Back in '08 I sold a 1968 Camaro for just over $25K and the buyer left feedback as the transaction being an 11 on a scale of 1-10. Please check my feedbacks over the years. My reserve is well below the NADA “Average Retail” of the car and by no means would I classify this as “an average 1964 Corvair Convertible”. Reserve also far below Hagerty's "lowest condition scale of 4". I would scale the car between a 2 and 3. My reserve is below these values as I'm ready to sell the car. Summer is nearly here, time to get into a classic ragtop and go topless!

Recharge Wrap-up: Detroit Electric teaser video, Nissan Leaf is Good Housekeeping "Tried and Tested"
Mon, Oct 20 2014Detroit Electric has a new teaser video and has updated its brand in preparation of the introduction of the SP:01. The refreshed logo uses a blue and white color palette, and the company has also given its website a new look. The teaser video, which gives a sneak peek at the exterior of the SP:01, shows the car taking form in the midst of an electrical storm. Watch the video or learn more in the press release below. Abengoa is celebrating the grand opening of a commercial scale cellulosic ethanol plant in Hugoton, KS. When running at full scale, the refinery will produce up to 25 million gallons of ethanol a year. The plant will also generate enough electricity to power itself and put some back into the grid. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz was on hand for the dedication, saying, "Every gallon of cellulosic ethanol produced and used to fuel our vehicles reduces the impact of harmful greenhouse gas emissions by greater than 60 percent as compared to conventional gasoline." Learn more at Energy.gov. Good Housekeeping has named the Nissan Leaf one of its "Tried and Tested" vehicles. The magazine called the Leaf SL its top "Roomy Electric" vehicle in its November issue. The magazine's research institute evaluated the EV based on track and road driving, ergonomics and convenience features. Good Housekeeping made note of the car's "impressive" range, but according to Nissan's Fred Diaz, "the real beauty of the Nissan Leaf is that it's roomy and, best of all, fun to drive." Read more in the press release below. Quasar Energy Group produces compressed natural gas from sewage and garbage. It uses things like grains leftover from brewing Budweiser, food waste from a baseball stadium and sewage sludge to produce the gas through anaerobic digestion. The compressed gas can then be used to power cars like Chevrolet's Bi-fuel Impala, which goes on sale later this year. Chevrolet likens the situation to the Delorean time machine in the Back To The Future movie series, which uses garbage to fuel its fusion generator.

Chevy's low-cost pedestrian avoidance to debut on 2016 Malibu
Tue, Jul 28 2015The mainstreaming of safety technologies that began on luxury vehicles will get a big boost from General Motors later this year. The General says it plans to offer 22 driver assistance systems across its product portfolio of 2016 models, starting with the redesigned Chevrolet Malibu - the one that we know will keep tabs on teenagers for the benefit of parents. Pedestrian avoidance will be another of its available options. Instead of kitting the sedan out with numerous and expensive radar arrays, the GM system uses the camera mounted next to the rearview mirror that is already used for the lane-keeping function. New software lets it detect pedestrians, and when it detects a potential collision with one, it can alert the driver and brake autonomously if the driver doesn't react. Eventually, engineers want to give it the ability to do the same with cyclists. Because it uses existing hardware updated with new code, GM says the application costs "a few hundred dollars." GM demonstrated the Front Pedestrian Braking preventing a crash with a dummy pedestrian at speeds up to 15 miles per hour. Automotive News reports that it will reduce the severity of impact up to 40 miles per hour, but "may not be of much use in collisions at higher speeds." That feature will also join the options list of the Cadillac CT6. The press release below has more on GM's driver tech soon on the way. Related Video: GM Paving Way to Smarter and Safer Driving at All-New Active Safety Test Area 22 crash-avoidance technologies offered on 2016 Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac models MILFORD, Mich. 2015-07-24 – Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac will offer 22 different active safety technologies across their 2016 model year U.S. lineups, ranging from driver alerts to those that automatically intervene and assist the driver in critical situations. Safety engineers will develop and test these and other safety technologies for products around the world at GM's new, 52-acre Active Safety Test Area at its Milford Proving Ground near Detroit. The $14 million facility officially opened Friday. "Our comprehensive safety strategy of helping customers before, during and after a crash continues," said Jeff Boyer, vice president of GM Global Vehicle Safety.
2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
