Description of 1966 Chevrolet Corvair |
Awesome autocross and street-legal Corvair built by David Clemens, a well-known Corvair racer and builder. I've owned it for just a few months, I bought it directly from David. Only selling because I need the space, otherwise I'd be keeping this car for a very long time. MANY upgraded features, please refer to the full list below. In short, it has a fully built race motor, rebuilt 4-speed transmission, 4-piston Wilwood disc brakes on all 4 corners, brand new Dunlop street/track tires with only 20 miles on them, custom wheels, and a host of other modifications. It's a gorgeous car, the nicest Corvair I've seen anywhere.

Currently the heater switch on the dash is the on/off for the electric fuel pump. Since the car now has disc brakes all around, the E-brake cable is disconnected. Horn not functional. Minor paint chips in various places but no dents or damage. One small rust spot on right rear fender and mis-matched paint area on rear right C-pillar (see pics). Minor paint cracking on A-pillars but that's common and just cosmetic. The rest of the car is rust-free as far as I can tell and is exceptional condition for it's age. I'm sure I missed a couple of things, there's a ton of work done to this car. It would be an animal on a race track but it's also very comfortable to drive on the street. Unfortunately I never had a chance to race it, I only put about 100 miles on it total since I've owned it, all local street driving. Comes with clean NY paperwork ready to transfer to the new owner. As with any used car, sold as-is with no warranty expressed or implied. I tried to describe the car as accurately as possible, but please ask any questions you have. I'll take additional photos upon request and you're welcome to come see the car in person if you're local. Happy bidding! On Sep-26-16 at 20:14:06 PDT, seller added the following information: Note: I listed the car as having 60,000 miles but I honestly don't know how many miles are on the car. The odometer reads 7100. It's too clean to be 107,100 miles but it's obviously not 7100 miles, so it's probably somewhere in the middle. |
