1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa 2.7 Liter turbocharged

Description for Chevrolet Corvair 1965

1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa turbocharged 180Hp.

This is the one, the most power that Chevy squeezed out of the unique, air-cooled flat-6. This car was purchased decades ago and has sat garaged ever since. Very complete, original faded maroon paint, only minor body dings. Windshield is cracked, Front floors are rotted out from the leak (see picture with circles drawn around holes). Rust in the typical places. When I bought this at an auto salvage lot in Illinois, we were able to get it running using a plastic bottle of fuel squirted into carb intake. There was evidence it was last plated in the late 80's. I never took the engine apart and very little was done to the vehicle. Judging by the wear of numerous parts, I believe the mileage of 48,510 to be accurate. Driver’s door opens and closes like a new car. Black interior upholstery is in good shape, carpet was discarded. I have never had a title for this vehicle. Included in this auction are various loose parts: belly pan piece, chrome turbo heat shield (repaired tab), chrome air cleaner, oil filer/ alternator adapter plate, generator (bolts removed and in two pieces), chrome intake crossover, all seats with original upholstery (padding/ buns need to be changed), original turbocharger that seems completely usable, YH Carter carburetor, etc.

There are certainly some bolts, valve covers and other miscellaneous parts missing.

Sale is as-is condition. I make no promises to the completeness, originality, or function of any parts or whole of the vehicle.

Car is in the city of Chicago, north side. If you want to take a look, let me know. Car does roll. It cannot be started or driven, it must be towed. I suggest a flat bed tow, unless you have a couple trust-worthy wheels.
