Selling my 1965 Corvair Corsa roller. It has a 180 Turbo motor and 4-speed manual.
Body: The body has been professionally restored and painted, and is rust-free. This is the absolute perfect car for a restoration, as the body work has already been done. Floors and front trunk area are original paint and are in exceptional condition. Everything else - body, doors, dashboard, engine bay, etc. have brand new paint. All the glass is included and damage-free. Only the windshield is not installed yet, but is included. Rear floor pans have been cut out but can be welded back in very easily. Again, no rust there. Brand new weatherstripping on trunk and hood, doors, and window fuzzies.
Engine/Transmission: Engine is a 180 Turbo. Included with the sale, currently out of the car. The motor spins freely and has a bunch of go-fast parts like electronic ignition, finned oil pan and valve covers. Assembled except for the accessories, intake, turbo (anything that sits on top of the motor). I have most of the parts for it. Transmission is a 4-speed manual, fully assembled and functional.
Interior: Custom upholstery has been made for the car already, including door panels, rear quarter interior panels, driver's seat and rear seat (see photos). I also have brand new carpeting waiting to be installed.
A hotrod in it's day! It's the perfect project for someone looking for an easy muscle car restoration, race car build, hot rod, etc. I have boxes upon boxes of parts to put the car back together with. I haven't gone through everything yet because I didn't have time to finish the car, but many of the parts needed for reassembly are there. This car is ready to be reassembled, all the hard stuff like body and paint is done - I just ran out of time. Currently a roller. The car has been stored indoors under a cover since the body was restored. Title in-hand, signed by previous owner. Somewhat flexible on price, make me an offer. Any questions, please text or call 845-803-7592.

I've been getting a few questions about what parts are included vs. what needs to be purchased. I have to admit I'm not a Corvair expert, so I don't know the parts down to the last nut and bolt - however, all of the major brackets and parts are there to get it together as far as I know. The only major thing that it needs is wiring. Other than that, you may need some interior trim pieces, engine accessory brackets, and screws/nuts to put it together. To the best of my knowledge, I do believe you can get most of the car together with what's here, but it will need some small parts. I strongly encourage you to come and check out the car in person before bidding if you need a better idea of what's included. I can also try to answer any questions about the car over the phone or email if you're not in the area. I want to represent the condition as honestly as possible so there are no surprises.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years
Fri, Feb 21 2014Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.
