A fresh restoration of local Virginia car. This car was purchased by the current owner several years ago. It was driven locally around the town of Galax, VA. It was then parked and stored in a building in the downtown area. A local Corvair enthusiast learned of the car and purchased it. He proceeded to restore the car. During the restoration he removed the automatic transmission and replaced it with a Corvair standard transmission. After it was completed, it was shown in the local area and did well. The restorer has done several cars that I have seen and his work is very good. Nothing is overlooked.
The mileage listed on the title is 99333. However the mileage on the odometer is 037137. The difference in the mileage numbers was caused by the restorer giving the mileage of the new engine to the DMV (the Covair has been traded between the current seller and the restorer). The VIN number on the title matches the VIN on the car.
I am selling the car for my father-in-law. I own a Corvair myself and this car is great. I have checked the areas that are prone to rust in these in these cars the, cowl inside the trunk, battery box, some surface rust in the bottom of the front well, pans, rockers, etc. There is a small rust spot on the rear valence panel below the bumper. These all look great. It is missing the ashetray.
Then some more horsetrading and the Corvair was traded back. Now it has been driven on rare occasion around the small town. The restoration is now about 4 years old and looks very good. This is a car you can drive and enjoy now!

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
