1964 Corvair Van Series 95
Simple, economical 110 motor runs quiet and smoke free. This van was bought by the seller as a very straight" rust free" body with no motor, Originally owned by Bell Telephone in Utah as a service truck.. Not a Greenbriar which had seats in back. Body was absolutely rest free. Seller operates an automotive rehab shop and put this together to haul auto body parts etc, but found he could not physically sit in the vehicle after completion. Professionally painted ( Base Coat Clear Coat) two years ago with a striking 2009 Corvette color " Sunburst Orange" Over $1000 in paint materials alone. New tires, battery, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, etc. Engine is a very healthy used motor from a locally available Corvair Monza that had been damaged in front. Note the rare 4 speed manual trans replaces the more common 3 speed. Vintage look is greatly enhanced with original Chevy " Rally Sport" wheels with complete set of Beauty Rings and Center Caps. All windows and doors work as they should. Glass is excellent. Ductwork not hooked up for heater, gas gauge shows full all the time (we wish it was true). New radial 50 series tires look great. Odometer shows 42,000 which feels about right as body feels tight and suspension is solid.
This vehicle would make a" head turning" daily driver for anyone with a hankering for an affordable classic, business related, work vehicle. Interior has reupholstered bench seat in "like new" condition with new carpet and the back has had a black rubberized coating sprayed on for easy care.
Should be roadworthy enough for a mechanically inclined individual to drive anywhere but seller really never did use it and it has been parked for two years. Starts and runs well and its simple design is easy to maintain.
Includes a spare parts motor and a nice pile other bits and pieces that seller had collected. Clean title, note well, this vehicle has never been severely damaged or wrecked.
You will be pleased with the value of this classic.

When I put the Van up on the hoist to do the pictures underneath I did note a couple of items.
There is an area of the right hand side rocker panel that has been pushed up ( like the van was hung upon a boulder at one time) and it has torn the support sheet metal a bit. The picture looks like it has rusted thru but that is not the case, the metal is just torn a bit. The rocker panel is pushed up a bit as a result.( maybe 3/8 of an inch). You can barely notice the damage if you are not underneath. I also included a picture of the left side which shows what it looks like with no damage.
Also on the bottom of the doors where the drain holes are, there is some surface rust but no perforations that was visible. A new owner should treat these areas with rust proofer to eliminate any further oxidation. This van, according to our sources, sat for 20 years so the underside has normal oxidation. A coat of POR 15 would make it look new.
I am the sellers friend who put this on ebay for him. I am out of town until Tuesday eve the 28th of June so if you have questions you can can call him directly at 1 801 8954. His name is Gene Stevens.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt's new, improved powertrain; Inabikari wants to build Tesla Model X fighter
Thu, Nov 6 2014We knew the 2016 Chevrolet Volt's new powertrain would provide more range, but we didn't know how much. According to GM's Executive Director Larry Nitz, it is about 12 percent more, overall. "I can't think of a powertrain we've re-engineered more extensively within a five-year period than this one," he said. The battery, electric drive system and gasoline generator have all been reworked to allow for an overall driving range of up to 425 miles, with electric range speculated to reach 42 miles or more. The new Volt will also benefit from 20 percent quicker low-end acceleration, weight reductions and improvements in NVH. Read more at Hybrid Cars and at the SAE website. Hyundai's FCEV research and development boss, Dr. Sae-Hoon Kim, is optimistic about the future of hydrogen mobility in Japan. With the Tucson Fuel Cell already in production ahead of Toyota's FCV, Hyundai has a foothold in the hydrogen car scene. Kim believes that since the Fukushima disaster, Japan's attitudes toward energy make it friendly to a growing hydrogen economy. He also says that hydrogen won't be limited to Hyundai, with Kia getting all the battery EVs. "Both types are for both companies," Kim says. "For the moment, volumes are small and it is not wise to have Hyundai and Kia competing." Read more at Just Auto. The Latvian/German startup Inabikari is using crowdfunding to build an electric crossover for Europe. The Rev.01 EV hopes to compete with Tesla's upcoming Model X with a range of over 400 miles and a five-second 0-60 time. The group currently is trying to raise initial funds through an Indiegogo campaign, with hopes of more investment in the future and sales beginning in 2017. See the video below, and read more at Hybrid Cars and at the Inabikari website. Fuel economy and emissions regulations could lead to some interesting design changes to automobiles. The World Light Duty Test Procedure, set to replace the New European Driving Cycle in 2017, will push automakers to find new ways to reduce drag on their vehicles. For better aerodynamics, we could see traditional side-view mirrors replaced by cameras that display what they see on screens inside the vehicle. Another likely change will be the introduction of smaller, narrower wheels. Improving the average drag coefficient from 0.32 to 0.20 could reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 20 percent.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
