I have owned 5 Corvairs and this is by far the coolest, best driving and comfortable one I have ever been in. It runs and handles like no other Corvair on the road. Once you drive it you won't believe you are in a 48 year old car. There are no squeaks or rattles, it tracks straight down the road and stops straight. The custom power brakes are incredible and has to be driven to appreciate. Everything works in this car. It can be driven anywhere. I drove it 125 miles in one trip last summer and it was 97 degrees out and the a/c was blowing ice cold! 

I've posted a bunch of pictures and I encourage your questions and inspection. You will not be disappointed in the car. It is the best of the best! Please feel free to contact me at 978-930-2530 or send me a message if you have any questions. I will happy to send more pictures, video or anything that you want.

NOTE: This is NOT a show car. It is a very nice #2 driver that has been customized to drive like a modern car. It is a classic car to be driven and enjoyed! Everything in the car works. All gauges and everything functions. It is mechanically sound and needs no mechanical repairs. The only fluid leak is a few drops of oil when parked from the rear main seal. The car presents itself extremely well however there are minor flaws. Some of the things that the new owner could do to make it a show car include: replacing the rubber gasket inside the front trunk lid and possibly the doors. Touching up the chip in the paint inside the driver's door and possibly repainting the underside of the trunk and engine lid. 

My guarantee: If you purchase this car and come to pick it up and are not blown away and 100% satisfied your deposit will be refunded no questions asked.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
