Original Parts Group promotion car! Right out of OPG's private
collection. This was used by OPG to represent their new line of
Corvair parts. It was debuted at 2018 SEMA in OPG's booth. It has
been in numerous videos, pictures etc. Complete restoration down to
a bare tub by Original Parts Group. In addition to several OPG
parts the car came with a pallet of New Old Stock part still in GM
packaging
EXTERIOR: Refinished right back to factory condition. No, it's
better! The body was professionally restored and is straight with
excellent fit. Repainted Goldwood Yellow with a smooth and glossy
finish. All the trim, emblems, bumpers, handles were replaced. I
especially liked the emblem on the trunk lid! New windshield and
weatherstrips. The black power top was completely restored. It is
correctly restored right down to the reproduction tires and deluxe
hubcaps.
INTERIOR: Completely restored to factory condition. OPG upholstery,
door panels, dash pad, handles, carpet, armrests, visors etc. It is
decked out with a 2 spoke deluxe wheel and seatbelts, yes seatbelts
were still optional in '64. It also has a great looking dash that
has the optional gauges including a tachometer. That's a nice
feature to go along with the factory 4-speed on the floor.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The Corvair is very unique throughout including
being a rear engine car. It has the optional 6 cylinder with a
turbo charger making 150hp! The motor and all of its components
were rebuilt or replaced. The turbo cars are dressed up with a
chrome air cleaner too. It is a detailed engine bay. They even
spent the money on a 5th reproduction spare along with a restored
rim, and original locking mechanism.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: So, the trunk is in the front and under the lid
and the jamb are painted slick like the car. Inside is clean metal
with a neat spatter finish. It is complete with mat, washers, jack
and master cylinder. The reproduction battery is included but it
wasn't very reliable, we installed a new battery.
UNDERSIDE: Completely restored, it was taken down bare. Now it has
clean metal painted black. It has independent suspension front and
rear! The steering and suspension were completely rebuilt. The
entire brake system was rebuilt. The fuel system and the exhaust
were replaced. Looking up at the motor and trans, they are
clean.
SERVICE: Our shop did a thorough inspection to make it road ready.
We replaced the head gaskets, gave it an oil change, replaced
courtesy bulbs, fixed temp gauge and radio, tightened the steering
components, set the timing, and replaced the fuel pump. It's ready
to drive!
CONCLUSION: This is an opportunity to buy a Corvair that would cost
double then what we are asking to restore! OPG spared no expense,
now the car has a great story to tell. Try a Corvair, it's a cool
and unique car!
