This 1965 Chevrolet Corvair presents a well-loved and thoughtfully
upgraded example of Chevrolet's unique air-cooled classic.
Under the care of its current owner since 2007, the car has seen
extensive mechanical and cosmetic improvements aimed at both
performance and comfort while preserving its vintage charm. At the
heart of the Corvair is a 140-horsepower, air-cooled, horizontally
opposed six-cylinder engine, now enhanced with a pair of Holley
Weber 32/36 two-barrel carburetors for improved throttle response
and power delivery. The powerplant is mated to a rebuilt 4-speed
manual transmission, which received a new clutch plate, throw-out
bearing, input shaft, solid flywheel, and pressure plate, ensuring
smooth and reliable gear changes.
The suspension has been thoroughly refreshed for a more confident
ride, including new front and rear shocks and coil springs
(installed in early 2008), as well as replaced universal joints and
suspension bushings. The Corvair's stopping power was also improved
with updated front brake components. A 3.55 rear end provides a
balanced mix of acceleration and cruising comfort.
Inside, the cabin reflects tasteful upgrades that blend vintage
styling with modern convenience. New carpet has been installed
along with a fresh headliner crafted by Kent's Auto Upholstery. A
custom aftermarket leather steering wheel adds a sporty touch,
while a RetroSound AM/FM Bluetooth radio brings contemporary audio
capability to the dash. The sound system is further enhanced by a
set of Kenwood rear speakers.
Visually, the car makes a bold statement thanks to a striking set
of 100-spoke wire wheels that set it apart from more traditional
Corvairs. Overall, this '65 Corvair strikes a compelling balance
between originality, period-correct upgrades, and thoughtful
personalization-ready to be enjoyed on the road or shown with
pride.
