1963 Chevrolet Corvair 95 Rampside Half-ton Pickup
?Concours-quality restoration, an absolutely stunning example! ?One
of the best examples of a Corvair Rampside on the market, complete
nut and bolt restoration ?Fresh rebuild with about 50 miles and
garage-kept since completion by the same owner of 9 years ?Stunning
exterior paint and a very tidy undercarriage ?Rare and distinctive
American pickup ? unique swing-down passenger side ramp for easy
loading, unloading (VIN code R124) ?One of only 2,046 examples
produced in 1963 ?Numbers-matching 145 CID, aluminum, air-cooled,
flat six-cylinder Turbo-Air engine ?Optional four-speed manual
transmission and 3.89 rear end ?Blue metallic exterior with white
trim and blue vinyl interior with white trim ?Eight-and-a-half-foot
cargo bed with a double-wall cargo box, 95-inch wheelbase and 4,600
GVWR ?Cargo bed lined for durability Corvairs were far more than
four-place, two-door coupes. For most of the early 1960s, the
Corvair had a range of models ? coupes, sedans, station wagons, a
Corvan cargo van and a Greenbrier passenger van plus two pickup
trucks, a Loadside and a Rampside. Unique to Corvair, the Rampside
feature allowed heavy loads to be rolled instead of lifted into the
bed, and Chevrolet sales literature never missed a chance to
illustrate it. This ?63 Corvair 95 Rampside was made in General
Motors? St. Louis, Missouri factory (VIN code S) and is only one of
2,046 Rampside Corvairs made in 1963. The metallic blue-and-white
paint and trim are in stunning condition. The body is straight and
solid, the 8.5-foot long cargo bed is double-walled, measures 43
and 7/8 inches wide and wears a bedliner for durability, the rear
engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery appears new and the
chrome bumpers look fantastic. Cargo can be loaded from the rear
via a standard tailgate or through the handy Rampside door on the
passenger side. This Corvair has a 95-inch wheelbase and a GVWR of
4,600. This Corvair rolls on Kumho radials, size 205/75R14 at all
four corners. Each tire is mounted on a polished U.S. Wheel
mag-style wheel. The wheels are in excellent condition while the
tires are in very good order. Out back under the rear-most cargo
bed is cover hiding the numbers-matching 146 CID Turbo-Air engine,
an aluminum, air-cooled, flat six-cylinder motor buttoned to the
optional four-speed manual transmission and 3.89:1 gearing. This
example has a rebuilt starter and electronic ignition. The
following changes were made for 1963 ? a positive crankcase
ventilation (PCV) became standard and minor changes were made to
the voltage regulator, distributor, cam profiles and valves.
Inside, the interior reflects the exterior ? a blue-and-white vinyl
bench seat in great condition, black carpeting, a neutral
headliner, a white, two-spoke steering wheel, a gorgeous
blue-and-white metal instrument panel, matching inner door liners,
and a floor-mounted shifter but the horn is inoperable. A Corvair
truck could be ordered as a ?Loadside? or ?Rampside.? The Rampside
had a side ramp to be used for loading and unloading cargo. During
the 1960s, these were used by the Bell Telephone Company as loading
and unloading its cable drums was eased by the side ramp.
Competition to this Corvair in 1963 included Dodge?s A100 pickup
and Ford?s Econoline pickup, plus Volkswagen?s Type 2 two-door
pickup. This cab-forward Corvair truck is finished in a striking
blue-and-white finish that will turn heads but after almost 60
years, this truck is still more than capable of hauling. This is
also a great candidate for a rolling advertisement for a small
company. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to check it out for
