1966 Chevrolet Corvair Description

1966 CORVAIR 140 WITH POWERGLIDE AUTOMATIC
A RARE MODEL AS IT IS A MONZA WITH A/C AND LARGER MOTOR FROM FACTORY, STILL HAS THE COMPLETE SET OF GREEN TINT A/C GLASS
ORIGINAL MOTOR REPLACED WITH A 110
HISTORY- I BOUGHT IT AT AUCTION TO RESELL, BUT HAVE ENJOYED TINKERING WITH IT FOR THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS. IT HAS BEEN QUITE RELIABLE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE BEEN WORKING OUT THE BUGS ON IT. IT IS A RELATIVELY INEXPENSIVE CLASSIC CAR AND THEY HAVE A VERY UNIQUE HISTORY AND STORY BEHIND THEM. THERE ARE TONS OF PARTS READILY AVAILABLE FOR THE CAR AND PLENTY OF PEOPLE WILLING TO HELP YOU (YOUTUBE, CLARKS, CA CORVAIR, ETC...).
I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU JOIN THE LOCAL CORVAIR CLUB AS THE GUYS ARE EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP OUT A FELLOW CORVAIR OWNER. YOU WILL GET TO MEET A BUNCH OF NICE PEOPLE AND BE ABLE TO JOIN THEM ON CAR RALLIES/SHOWS ETC.......
THE CAR SHOWS QUITE WELL, BUT ISN'T PERFECT. THE PAINT SEEMS NEW AND ISN'T IN TOO BAD OF SHAPE. THERE ARE A FEW DOOR DINGS THAT SHOW UP BECAUSE OF THE SHINY BLACK PAINT. THERE IS SEEMINGLY NO RUST AT ALL ON THE CAR (I'VE BEEN ALL OVER THIS CAR). I'M SURE IT HAS BEEN GARAGED FOR IT'S ENTIRE LIFE. IT IS ESSENTIALLY BRAND NEW ON THE INSIDE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER PROBABLY DROPPED $5K+ ON JUST THE INTERIOR PARTS AND LABOR ALONE. HONESTLY, IT WOULD REALLY JUST TAKE A BETTER PAINT JOB TO MAKE THIS CAR VERY CLOSE TO PERFECT.
THE CAR APPEARS TO HAVE SAT FOR SEVERAL YEARS AS LITTLE ISSUES HAVE COME UP AND WERE DEALT WITH. I CAN DISCUSS THAT WITH YOU IN PERSON IF INTERESTED.
I HAVE DRIVEN IT DOZENS OF TIMES- IT'S FUN TO DRIVE AND RELIABLE. IT GETS TONS OF ATTENTION AND THUMBS UP WHEN IT'S OUT. TOOK IT TO RUBY'S A FEW WEEKS AGO AND TALKED WITH A BUNCH OF NICE PEOPLE.
