FOR AUCTION - 1965 CHEVROLET CORVAIR CORSA 140HP
This is the Corsa model which has a four carb setup producing 140hp. It also differs from the more common Monza by featuring extra dials in the dash. The car has a limited slip diff as factory standard as well as a quick steering rack and quick shift gearstick. These factory extras were standard on the Corsa model.  Only about 10% of Corvairs built in 1965 were Corsa models and they are becoming rare to find in such good condition even in the US.
The car I am selling is in great condition and being restored in the early 2000's the shell was stripped and rebuilt dealing with any imperfections. The engine was rebuilt this year and the car runs like an absolute dream.  It has Cragar Tru-Spoke wire wheels which were  a very expensive add on and matching tyres all round with 80% tread still left.  The interior has no tears or rips and is very well presented. The radio is original and working .  It is also equipped with the rare telescopic steering wheel option. I have spent lots of time and money on this car renewing the brake system and the fuel system using new parts from Clarks Corvair in New York.  This Corvair is almost unique in that there are no oil leaks. if you know about Corvairs then you will know why I mention that !
I have a large amount of history and plenty of Corvair manuals to go with the car . A photo will follow shortly.
I know the new owner will get as much pleasure as i did . I hear people say many times that their car "turns heads". This one really does and being so rare it is the centre of attention when you want it to be.  Tax is of course free and insurance is very cheap. I pay 115 a year (Adrian Flux).
The Corsa model fetches a higher premium than the Monza model and a very good one will fetch anything between 12 and 20 thousand dollars in the states. Taking the current exchange rate into account I have set my reserve lower than that as the car must go.
This auction will run its course and I will answer any questions you have regarding this car.
Good luck.
