Vehicle Description
This 1964 Chevrolet Corvair is a cute little 2 door coupe that runs
and drives great while sporting European-inspired styling. When
Chevrolet introduced its new Corvair in the Fall of 1959, the car
featured numerous engineering improvements and initially received
industry-wide accolades. From a rear-mounted air-cooled aluminum
engine block to the front trunk to the unconventional styling for
an American car, the Corvair became the compact car for Chevrolet,
which was an emerging market in the United States at the time. The
Monza Series, which was introduced in April 1960, gave the Corvair
more standard options, plusher interiors, and a sportier feel. The
1964 Corvair lineup debuted on September 26, 1963, and is
considered the best first generation Corvair due to the numerous
improvements made, such as brake and suspension updates.
Interestingly, the origin for the name "Corvair" came from
combining the names of two of Chevy's most successful vehicles at
the time, "Corvette" and "Bel Air." Under the rear-mounted hood is
an air cooled 164 Cubic Inch Flat 6 Cylinder engine paired with
dual 1 barrel carburetors that pushed out 110 horsepower in its
day. Anybody can take this coupe for a spin around the block since
the 164 Flat Six is mated to a Powerglide automatic transmission.
The aluminum 164 Flat Six sends power to the rear wheels through
the rear axle and exhaust exits via a dual exhaust setup. Riding on
a set of P195/70R13 thin whitewall radial tires with wire wheel
covers, this Corvair has a great look and even better ride. The
exterior has been refinished in a beautiful Azure Aqua, completing
the exterior appearance of the car. The interior on this Corvair
has a nice classic look. The front bucket seats and rear bench seat
have been correctly reupholstered in black vinyl. The dash, door
panels, carpet, and steering wheel are in very nice shape as well
and appear to be in their stock configuration. The dash is equipped
with a 100 MPH speedometer, fuel gauge, and AM/FM radio. Whether
you're buying your first classic car or you're adding to your
existing collection, this 1964 Chevrolet Corvair would be an
excellent choice. Give us a call today!
