1966 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible finished in a deep Custom Green
Metallic, offered at $38,900. This second-generation Corvair (1965
to 1969) is the only American car of its era with a rear-engine,
air-cooled setup, and it feels every bit as special as that sounds.
Built at the Willow Run plant when new, it has been garage-kept and
treated like a showpiece, not just another classic. Under the rear
deck sits the 2.7L 140 hp, 164 cubic inch flat-six, paired with a
4-speed manual transmission. The upgraded rear suspension on these
second-gen cars gives this Corvair sharper, more confident handling
than the first generation. It feels balanced, eager, and light on
its feet. American Racing wheels, a clean beige convertible top,
and rich chrome trim give it a period-correct stance that looks
even better in person. The photos do not capture the depth of the
paint or the presence of the car. This was a western car and a
rust-free example before restoration. No expense was spared in
bringing it to this level, and it shows in every panel, seam, and
piece of trim. Factory telescopic steering, tach, and full gauges
are in place, and everything works as it should. It comes with
build photos, lots of manuals, and books that trace its story. For
this price, you could not restore another Corvair to this standard.
If you want one of the best of the best, and you care about how a
car feels on the road as much as how it looks, this Corvair
deserves a spot in your garage. CALL FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO VIEW,
