1965 CHEVROLET CORVAIR CONVERTIBLE C-429 This very rare 1965
Chevrolet Corvair convertible has had a full restoration, focused
on original specifications. A newly rebuilt Flat 6 standard 95 hp
engine with less than 500 miles powers the Corvair. An automatic
transmission makes for ease of driving. The maroon exterior is
complimented with the tan interior with maroon piping interior and
tan convertible top. Photo documentation of the rebuild is
included. The Corvair second generation arrived for model year
1965, noted for its lack of a "B" pillar and a new fully
independent suspension replacing the original swing axle rear
suspension. The Corvair used coil springs at each wheel. Car and
Driver magazine's David E. Davis Jr. showed enthusiasm for the 1965
Corvair in their October 1964 issue stating: "And it is here too,
that we have to go on record and say that the Corvair is in our
opinion-the most important new car of the entire crop of '65
models, and the most beautiful car to appear in this country since
before World War II." The 1965 Corvair features as standard, much
better heater system, larger brakes borrowed from the Chevelle, a
stronger differential ring gear, an alternator, and significant
chassis refinements were made. A new fully articulated rear
suspension virtually eliminated the danger of the previous
generation's swing axles and was based on the contemporary Corvette
Sting Ray. Additionally, the Monza and Corvair 500 Sport Sedans
were the only compact cars ever available in the U.S. as pillarless
four-door hardtops. ***If you are viewing this on Facebook
