1965 was the first year for the totally redesigned Corvair. This particular example is finished in period correct Medira Maroon over a beautiful black interior and is a rare Corsa convertible model which featured a higher output 4 carburetor 140 HP air cooled flat 6 cylinder engine. This uncommon classic also boasts a 4 speed manual transmission and rally dash.

As can be seen in the photos, this Corvair is in superb condition having received a thorough cosmetic and mechanical restoration over the last 3 to 4 years. Interior is all new, paint is approximately 1 year old and was done professionally at a considerable expense. This car also has 15" Chevy rally wheels, new weather strips, a rebuilt engine and transmission, new clutch as well as rebuilt suspension and brakes and more... The result is a show quality vehicle that can be driven on a regular basis. The car tracks perfectly straight even at highway speeds and brakes solid with no swerving, it is a blast to drive and garners a lot of attention wherever it goes!

All lights function properly, there are no electrical issues, no battery drains, car always starts readily and runs strong. Overall I would rate this example as a very solid 3+ high quality driver. It is very showable and could even be an award contender at local level shows. However, it is not flawless or a trailer queen. Chrome presents well but does show some age, convertible top is older and in average condition but is totally usable as is. Trunk compartment is extremely nice, engine compartment is presentable but would benefit from a thorough detailing. Undercarriage is extremely solid with no rot or rust damage.

Please view the photos and contact me with questions. I have sold literally hundreds of cars on the internet over the years and will gladly answer all questions as well as assist with shipping arrangements. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs. $500 deposit is required to secure the vehicle, cash, cashier's check, and bank wire transfer are all acceptable forms of payment.

I HAVE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS and 2 videos, serious potential buyers please email me for more photos and links to videos, or call, Jamie 314-368-4564. Anyone who wishes to see the car in person is more than welcome to, just contact me to make arrangements.

Corvair Corsa Convertibles in this condition are a very rare find, act quickly! I have a tremendous amount of money tied up in this car and am not in any way desperate to sell it. If you what to make fixer-upper offers, then buy a fixer-upper and find out for yourself how expensive it is to restore a car, not to mention the time commitment to get it sorted out after restoration. For those that understand the value inherent in buying a "done" car, this one is for you, all serious offers will be considered.

Chevy Volt sales drop in June, Nissan Leaf inches upwards

Tue, Jul 1 2014

Different month, same story. That's the gist of the monthly US sales numbers from the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. These were the first two mass-market plug-in vehicles to go on sale in the US and we've been comparing their sales numbers for what seems like ages now. So far, the 2014 tale of the tape shows the all-electric once again trumping the plug-in hybrid. The last time the Volt outsold the Leaf was in October 2013. Chevrolet sold 1,777 Volts in June. That was good enough to be the Volt's best sales month of the year, but it's down 34 percent from the 2,698 units sold in June 2013. In fact, it's on par with the 1,760 Volts sold in June 2012. Given the steady sales, General Motors might need to push up the release of the next-gen Volt to gin up excitement, especially if it also offers some of the things that current Volt drivers say they want improved: more range, a lower price and a fifth seat. GM also said it sold 85 Spark EVs in June, an increase of 215 percent over June 2013 Nissan sold 2,347 Leafs last month. The good news continues for Nissan, which says it sold 2,347 Leafs last month. That's an increase of 5.5 percent over 2013 numbers and makes 2014 the best June ever for Leaf sales. Let's credit Texas. Toby Perry, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, said in a statement that, "Since the Texas state incentive went into effect in May, we've seen a big jump in Leaf sales in the Austin, Dallas and Houston markets. Our dealers are telling us that they saw more traffic in their stores, and they had their best Leaf sales performance in the last weekend in June." Even with that increase, Atlanta remains the top Leaf market. Nissan has sold 12,736 Leafs in the US so far this year; Chevy 8,615 Volts. Our detailed monthly sales write-up of green cars in the US, including plug-in vehicles, hybrids and diesel cars, is coming soon. For now, we invite you to discuss these numbers in the Comments.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%

Sat, Jun 13 2015

General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.

2016 Chevy Volt to make auto show debut this season

Wed, Jul 30 2014

Ever since we saw that spy shots of the 2016 Chevy Volt, we've been hungering for more information on the next-gen version of GM's green halo car. It appears we might not have long to wait, at least for an official tease. An inside source that wishes to remain anonymous told AutoblogGreen that GM will make two announcements regarding the second-gen Volt at the CAR Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI next week. The first, and most intriguing, is that that we will get our first glimpse of the new Volt at some point during the upcoming auto show season. That means either Los Angeles later this year or else Detroit, Chicago or New York in early 2015. The second bit of news is that GM will be moving production of the electric motors from Mexico to Michigan. Details and official confirmation are, of course, missing and Chevrolet declined comment to AutoblogGreen. We should know more next week.
